• The "Plus" Upgrade: The Spectrum+ was essentially a 48K Spectrum motherboard housed in a case similar to the ill-fated Sinclair QL. It was offered as a retail unit and also as an "upgrade kit" for owners of the original "rubber key" Spectrum.
• Global Impact: The Spectrum series inspired a generation of British programmers, leading to the creation of many famous modern game development studios.
• Rainbow Logo: The iconic four-color rainbow on the bottom right of the case represents the computer's ability to produce color graphics, a major selling point in the early 80s.
