The ZX Spectrum Book Limited Edition is now available. But as it's a limited edition of only 100 copies, it's almost sold out! Get your copy now to avoid disappointment!

Thanks to Lee Fogarty and his excellent HTML skills, a niggly bug in the rendering of this website under WebKit based browsers was fixed today.
If this means nothing to you, then don't worry. It now means the site works in all browsers. I can thoroughly recommend to anyone with a burning need for an HTML/PHP/CMS expert.

Earlier today a small problem was discovered with a recent database update that caused items to be incorrectly left in the shopping cart if they were added and then subsequently removed.
This issue has been resolved. Sorry for any inconvenience.

The updates for the ZX Spectrum Book Limited Edition have been completed, and the proof is due to be shipped to the printers after that.
If all goes well, the books should arrive at Hiive HQ about twenty business days later, which works out to be about mid-September. (UPDATE: Make that end-of-November. The proof process took longer than I hoped).
They are well on the way to selling out (as only 100 are being printed) so if you want to be sure to get one, now is the time to put in your preorder!
