If you can't do it, it's a buffalo.

# Aren't they the same thing?
I always thought Buffalo was the common term and Bison was the educated peoples term.

# My understanding is
if you see two bison together, they're buffaloes, whereas if you see a buffalo on its own it's a bison.

# American Buffalo are Bison
"American Buffalo" are actually Bison. Buffalo are from Africa and Asia.

But what is a name? Easier to just rename it to "Dinner plus fur coat" (unless you are vegetarian... but then you would be odd as you'd have more in common with a Bison...)

# I still have
a couple of Acorn RISC-OS machines. Well, three. A3020, A5000, A7000+. And a BBC B+.

I love RISC-OS. F12, *BASIC, and you've got access to the ARM CPU with a few assembly commands.

I wrote some of my best programs in ARM assembler and ARM BASIC, I made a lovely ripple-tank simulator which I called !WavePlasma. If I can find the binaries, I'd be happy to post them.

*EDIT* And you might be thinking of !ArtWorks, !AdPro, or possibly !RevPro24, 256 colour painting and 16.8M colour photoshoppery respectively.
