This site is dedicated to CRASH, the ZX Spectrum magazine which was published from 1984 to 1991 by Newsfield (and from 1991 to 1992 by Europress), providing an archive of material for those who missed it the first time round. Comments are welcome; I would be especially interested to hear from any of the original authors. Now on Twitter @CrashOnlineUK.
