then spectrum, then as I was leaving school we had an archimedes in the art class that no one used (because the teachers didn't know how)

# 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.
