Thats nothing, our test dept. has only recently consigned a couple of 'BBC Masters' to the bin; they were using them for testing PCB's or something because they don't like spending their money.

Now there's a blast from the past... BBC micros. I learn't to code on one of them, more years ago than I care to remember....

Do you remember the days when we used to sit and type in pages of code from a magazine and then spend the next few days looking for typing errors, all for a simple game?

I remember writing a relational database for our angling club all in BBC Basic
it all fitted on an 80 track single sided floppy disk (or was it a 40 track floppy? I can't remember).
