Re: Hello from the National Museum of Computing
Welcome! :D I am also looking for some good demo software we can run on a few machines (BBCs and Arcs) when we are not teaching. I remember seeing a great demo on the RiscPC at on the Acorn stand at Acorn World once – can anyone point out where that may be? Demoscene or something else? You might hav...

Re: Remarkable videos recently posted on Youtube
Exile C64 full playthrough It's interesting to see a full playthrough, finally! It looks like a pretty solid version of the original. There are some sharp edges removed and the difficulty curve is shallower at the start, but it still keeps some of the viciously difficult "puzzles" for som...

Re: Spellbinder on the Master Compact
I'm trying to get Spellbinder to work on my Master Compact, but all the versions I tried from various online sources end with a "Mistake" right after the splash screen is displayed. Tried some reverse engineering using B-Em and found that, at some point, the program starts poking BASIC co...

Re: Acornsoft Elite
I thought re-releasing it was a very good idea because of the number of people who had bought the tape version of Elite on release who subsequently bought a disc drive and wanted the disc version. That was certainly the case with me - I re-bought several games (Repton 3, Magic Mushrooms) on 5.25&qu...

Re: Memories of Bolos Past
Yes, it's the graphics, isn't it - or is it the original Everard(?) Island map? It's been a long time since I played Bolo on the Mac.
Wasn't Stuart Cheshire interviewed for the recent Acorn - A World in Pixels book? Was anything said about the original Bolo?
