  • Wakefield 2006 RISC OS Computer Show
    I would like to welcome you all to this, our eleventh annual show in Wakefield. There have been many ups and downs over the last eleven years, since the first show at Cedar Court, organised in thirteen weeks, which ended up taking over the entire hotel. Ever since then, we have been at our current venue of Thornes Park. Over the years we have had many interesting attractions and features, such as the guest appearance by Johnny Ball one year. Of course, the show has seen many new hardware and software launches and previews over the years, some more successful then others: Kinetic, Peanut, Phoebe, StrongARM, Vantage, RiScript and so on. In fact, this year it is ten full years since we saw the very first StrongARM at the first Wakefield Show, as well as being the 25th Anniversary of the BBC Micro! Even now, we still have people developing for this famous microcomputer, which helped to start the home computer revolution. Be sure to visit both the JGH BBC Software and Domesday System stands during your visit. The Domesday Project is another superb example of how advanced we were with the BBC Master and other Acorn products of the 1980s. Now we are looking to the future with the new A9home, which is expected to be on retail sale or available for ordering at the show. Over the years we have had visitors to the show from all over the world, from countries such as New Zealand, Australia, South Africa, Belgium, Finland, Sweden and the USA; not bad for an amateur show! Another long-standing attraction of the show is of course the charity stall, which allows redundant equipment to be recycled, and through your kind support the stall has raised many thousands of pounds, primarily for the Wakefield Hospice, over the years.

  • Archimedes PC Emulator
    Archimedes PC Emulator PC emulators are not new, but so far they have had limited success in their job of enabling your chosen micro to run PC-compatible software. Simon Jones unveils Acorns PC Emulator package for the Archimedes range of micros to see how well it performs in action. At this years PCW Show, Acorn proudly displayed its PC Emulator package for the Archimedes range of computers, which is claimed to allow packages written for the IBM PC to run on an Archimedes. Acorn was demonstrating the Emulator running dBase III+ and Lotus 1-2-3 at the show and, as I only managed a quick glance at the Emulator then, I was pleased to get the opportunity to examine the product at close quarters. Having seen other attempts at PC compatibility, such as pc-ditto (reviewed in PCW, October) I was sceptical to say the least. The Archimedes carries on the Acorn tradition, having a lot in common with the BBC Micro and the BBC Master series. Indeed, the Archimedes will run most of the well-behaved software written for the BBC computers. However, the Archimedes and the BBC micros differ radically in the CPU they use and the amount of RAM available. Based on Acorns RISC processor, the Archimedes 440 is blindingly fast and, with 4Mbytes of memory, it is not short functions to those in MS-DOS. This is cellaneous keys between the main of space — a problem which caused the more than a little confusing if you are group and the numerics. The back- downfall of the BBC Micros.

Vision Park Histon Cambridge CB4 4AE Support Group Application Note No. 004, Issue 1 16th June 1992 Overview One of the BBC Microcomputer's strengths lies in its sophisticated Operating System, the MOS. This operating system has a very fast and flexible response to Interrupts, which allows the machine to take a wide range of peripherals and handle them with ease. The TUBE is a fast bus interface through which additional Co-processors (also called second processors) can be added. when a co-processor is connected to the TUBE interface, the BBC Micro continues to look after all of the I/O processing, whilst the additional co-processor now carries out the task of running the Language Application. The Co-Processor The co-processor can be based on any microprocessor chip, and can have any memory size that this chip can address.

  • Rewriting History
    Remembering Repton: An alternative history of co-creativity in 1980s Britain Alison Gazzard Abstract This article explores some of the histories of player creativity in the 1980s through the inclusion of early level editors in games. Drawing on Huhtamo’s (2011) media archaeological framework of tracing “alternative histories” the article will trace the histories of level editors in games created for the BBC Micro through the case studies of Repton 3 (Superior Software 1986) and Repton Infinity (Superior Software 1987). Whereas current writing about fan practices and user-generated content by players focuses on the online possibilities of creating and sharing, this paper recognises these practices inherent in offline spaces. Using archival documents from magazine articles and reviews, the concept of player as producer and the role of user-generated content will be re-examined as a way of exploring another facet of this history. Keywords Co-creativity, level editor, microcomputing, BBC Micro, 1980s, platform ***** Introduction “In the field of game studies and within the consumer market we rarely (or are only beginning to) attend to videogames […] in terms of their aging, deterioration, obsolescence, ruinous remains, or even history…” (Guins 2014, p.5) In the opening pages of Raiford Guins’ book Game After (2014) the author notes how there are histories of games within game studies but these have been unintentional anecdotes and _____________________________________________________________ Kinephanos, ISSN 1916-985X Cultural History of Video Games Special Issue, June 2015, www.kinephanos.ca Remembering Repton: An alternative history of co-creativity in 1980s Britain not always written as the sole purpose of the text.

The series will introduce many of the techniques involved and will also show you how to include these routines in your Basic programs. We are also very enthusiastic about Block Blitz, one of the very best games written in Basic that we have seen for some time. The effort of typing this into your micro is well worthwhile. We have also included a detailed review of the two double density disc controllers that have so far been released. Apart from the many other excellent programs and articles this month, we have provided a short introduction to the computer language FORTH, as a prelude to a comparative review of FORTH implementations for the BBC micro, that we shall be publishing in the next issue. Your views on the extent to which we should cater in BEEBUG for languages other than Basic would certainly be of interest to us.
