Re: Sinclair
Miracle it is working, they all failed, don't expect it too last, and anyway they sounded horrible.

Re: Sinclair
Both Sugar & Sinclair never made good kit it was all for a price cheap and nasty, stealing IMO.
But hey they both got Knighthood, so Doc let us make some junk audio kit, label it Made in Anihc. And get worthless Knighthoods.
We could add silver tinsel and Gold Stars to bling it up a bit and tie the box with a Yellow Ribbon.

It can be done so imagine it.

Re: Sinclair
Heaven forbid, anyway in business real honest human beings never get rewarded publicly, they normally just get insulted and lied about as in both mine and Colin's cases. Too much threat of showing up the bullshitters and marketing men, they seem to be the ones who get the honours.

Re: Sinclair
They certainly didn't get a knighthood for their amps!!! As far as Sinclair is concerned he had good ideas that were produced badly or impractical. Commodore soon wiped aside his calculators and computers. I remember seeing his 'car' in use which at least made me laugh. He got the knighthood for his innovations which took years and others to develop into something practical. Sugar is just a salesman but he came close to establishing a UK computer industry maybe by chance. Again cost cutting and product design a problem Ended up making Sky satellite TV boxes. He is better known for the Apprentice and once owning Tottenham Hotspur (which he also starved of cash). He got the knighthood for helping out the Labour government as a supposed business expert. Sinclair I see as a failed boffin and Sugar is just full of bullshit. They both specialised in crap products for different reasons. If these two are held as best of British Innovation and business it's not surprising we are where we are today.Colin Wonfor wrote: ↑Fri Apr 12, 2019 8:13 am Both Sugar & Sinclair never made good kit it was all for a price cheap and nasty, stealing IMO.

Re: Sinclair
I tend to see great similarities between lord Sugar and "Del Boy" - funny thing is, I don't think that lord Sugar would mind the comparison (as long as he could make some money/publicity out of it).
