As a family we had the BBC Micro, followed by the Archimedes - which you 
never hear anything about these days.

My memories of the BBC consist of writing a BASIC program that printed 
out "Hello" in different colours, typing programs out from books (which 
invariably never worked), and James having a beer tankard full of the 
keys in his room.  Oh oh and Elite.
