Dear Readers;
As you may know by now, Timex is no longer in the computer business. Apparently, they were afraid of taking a “licking” in the home computer market this year (for more details see NEW s analysis). I suppose many of you are wondering what this will mean for the future of T-S Horizons.
Actually, we are fairly confident of the future of TS Horizons and Sinclair computing in general. Sinclair Research which, of course, markets the Sinclair computers that the Timex computers are derived from, is going strong and actively developing new prodducts. We expect them to take up the reins dropped by Timex and actively market their computer products in the U.S.
Our circulation has grown slowly but steadily as more and more people are becoming aware of TS Horisons, and as we grow, we are able to provide you with more useful information.
So if you’re happy with your computer, whether of the ZX or TS variety, there is no reason you should let the demise of the Timex Computer Corporation affect your enjoyment of Timex (or Sinclair, whichever) computing or of TS Horizons.
Sincerely,
Rick Duncan
