I suspect many of you will already have seen this as it was listed on Hacker News, but just in case:

A really interesting read.

People do love their 80s computers... :lol:

Well! That was an interesting read, thanks. And I never had or wanted a BBC. ;)

Cheers,
Norm.

Nice read. Had a BBC Micro model B back in the 1980s, plus one with a Z80 second processor unit in work at the time. Quite a beast in its day.

I picked one up a while back with an SSD adapter. Good fun playing all the old classics again (we had Beebs at school, it was the first computer I coded). There is something about that baaa-beeep sound when you switch it on. Takes me right back to the school computer room!
