Do the old machines suffer from things like failing capacitors? I was chatting with someone the other night about old computers and he was saying he'd love to play the old Spectrum games again. I think emulators are a valid way to do that as the original hardware can be fragile and may be expensive. I do regret selling some of my old machines, but I hardly find time for games lately.

Totally, bad capacitors are a major source of retro computing woe right across the board.
For your friend who would like to play old speccy games The Spectrum plug and play recreation is excellent, but for $0 the online emulators are great too
