InterCompex Hobbit 8030 (Хоббит 8030), SSSR, 1991. Leningradský počítač Dmitrije Michajlova vychází ze ZX Spectra, ale jde o výrazně rozšířenou školní a pracovní platformu. Používá Z80A na 3,5 MHz, 64 KB RAM a podle verze 16 až 64 KB ROM. Zachovává vysokou kompatibilitu se ZX Spectrum 48K a standardní grafiku 256 × 192 s atributovými barvami. Profesionální klávesnice má 74 kláves s latinkou i azbukou. Výbava zahrnuje RS-232, Centronics, Sinclair a Kempston joysticková rozhraní, expanzní sběrnici a volitelný BetaDisk. Proprietární školní síť pracuje přibližně rychlostí 56 kbit/s a dovoluje propojit více Hobbitů nebo použít IBM PC jako řídicí počítač. Firmware a diskové konfigurace podporovaly BASIC, Forth, Logo, TR-DOS a CP/M. Model 8060 se od 8030 lišil mimo jiné numerickým blokem a vestavěnou 3,5palcovou mechanikou.

InterCompex Hobbit 8030 (Хоббит 8030), USSR, 1991. Dmitry Mikhailov's Leningrad designed computer is based on the ZX Spectrum but extends it into a much more capable school and work platform. It uses a Z80A at 3.5 MHz, 64 KB RAM and 16 to 64 KB ROM depending on revision. It retains strong ZX Spectrum 48K compatibility and the standard 256 × 192 attribute colour display. The professional keyboard has 74 keys with both Latin and Cyrillic legends. Interfaces include RS-232, Centronics, Sinclair and Kempston joystick connections, an expansion bus and optional BetaDisk. A proprietary school network runs at roughly 56 kbit/s and can link several Hobbits or use an IBM PC as a classroom server. Firmware and disk configurations supported BASIC, Forth, Logo, TR-DOS and CP/M. The 8060 model differs from the 8030 by adding, among other things, a numeric keypad and built in 3.5 inch floppy drive.
