Grahame, ah …., nostagia isn't what it used to be, eh? <g>. >> As an [Acorn] employee I had a double disc drive for the BBC micros << bloody luxury! You were lucky. My first computer was an abecas made out of 18 lumps of gravel and some rusty old barbed wire. Them were the days …. <G>. Seriously, thanks for the memories. I wondered what had happened to Acorn. They had a great procedural basic that was much better than any other micro's. I wrote some cool apps with that. I did a lot of work with ICL (1900's, 2900's etc) mainframes. They seem to be in the PC clone business now. >> I'll stop this know or everybody will start reminiscing and we'll be back to the Analytical Engine before we know it. << too late <g>.
