Spectrumness vs Sinclairicity

Updated:
- Added Harlequin
- Added Czerweny models
- Added Timex models
- Added Unipolbrit Komputer
- Added Inves Plus
- Added maker labels
- Distinction of +2 variants

This is only Western Europe and the Americas. I have no clue how to approach a map of the multiplicity and vast richness of Eastern speckies, which won't fit a simple chart. If you have any ideas, let me know.

Guy who builds homebrew cartridges has something called "OS64" by Zebra Systems, for the TS2068. As far as I can tell the only advantages it adds is the 64-column text editing mode and support for long-deceased printers. Has anybody used OS64?

Comparison of joystick connector signals between the Timex Sinclair 2068 Technical Manual and traditional Atari folklore. There's a minor divergence regarding pins 8 and 9 but aside from that they just work and no rewiring is necessary using Atari-type joysticks. I haven't checked but I think the CX10 probably doesn't use those lines anyway.

Update:

- Corrected to reflect that the Timex Computer 2048 never existed out of the lab. Timex Portugal did pursue that project further and produced the independently after the Timex Sinclair joint venture fell apart. Most TC2068s were sold in Poland.

- Added the glaring omissions of the and the .

Somebody told me to delete the Spectrum Next but this is about recorded history. What exists, exists.

Oh lookie! I've just made a chart!

It's guaranteed to contain errors, wrong interpretations, and possibly a few valid points. Please let me know if you think there's something that you believe should be represented differently.
Thank you!

Even against a densely textured background, the quick reference design of Timex/Sam spaceship that I made in a few minutes could still look relatively decent. And it would look better on a ZX Spectrum Next.

This would be a perfectly viable spaceship sprite using the 2068 and mode 2 with 256 x 192 pixels @ 32 x 192 colour resolution.

I love work with and drawing old stuff is somewhat therapeutic. It's a Timex-Sinclair 2068 drawing that I made few years ago based on a photo of one of my own.
