It's December of 1981 and we are closing in on Christmas. What will be the big stocking fillers this year? Will Santa be brining you a ZX81 for you to solder together, or a sparkly new Apple II tower of power? Or maybe its a handheld Puck Man or one of the new fangled Game and Watches from Nintendo.

This is a jam packed edition where £69 kit computers vie for column inches with the Vic 20, Atari 800, Apple II+ and TRS-80. Join me to find out exactly how Christmas 1981 shook out over here in the UK for the micro kiddies.
