 | | A Sinclair QL The Sinclair QL (for Quantum Leap), was a personal computer launched by Sinclair Research in January 1984, as the successor to the ZX Spectrum. | | | Due to its rushed development, the QL was plagued by a number of problems from release, particularly bugs in the QDOS operating system and SuperBASIC which lead to multiple releases of the firmware. | | | Q-emuLator Sinclair QL emulator for Windows and Mac OS |

| | Sinclair QL The Sinclair QL The QL was a personal computer introduced by Sinclair Research in 1984. | | | The QL was launched too early in its development for commercial reasons; the result was a system which was buggy and still unfinished. | | | The QL was sold with four software packages, written by Psion Ltd.: a word processor (Quill), a database (Archive), a spreadsheet (Abacus), and a graphic presentation program (Easel). |

| | Sinclair QL; Sir Clive enters the business market. |
| | The entire QL computer is about the same size as the detachable keyboards on desktop machines like the IBM PC and Epson QX-10. | | | On the other hand, the QL Easel business graphics package is outstanding, and it alone may justify the purchase of the system, especially for a business which already has an Epson FX80 (which prints the graphics output exactly). | | | On the other hand, the QL is like no other business computer. |

| | Sinclair QL The Sinclair QL was the first attempt for Clive Sinclair to produce a computer for business. | | | The QL was sold as a professional computer, and that's why there weren't a lot of games available for it. | | | ICL proved with their OPD computer (derived from the QL), that the microdrives could be quite reliable. |

| | In reality the QL promised much but failed to deliver, it was promoted as a serious computer, a business machine. | | | The QL's real abilities, along with most computers of the time was an introduction to microprocessor based technologies - these were the future at the time. | | | A whole generation of people were developing skills on the Spectrum and QL, for many they would later find themselves engaged in employment that required a PC and would look back with affection to the mid-80's, the days when computers were both wonderfully simple, and highly playable. |
