having always been mildly regretful at having missed out on the archimedes (jumped from bbc b to x86), this sounds like a wonderful thing to explore.

It was pretty good but not as good as the beeb was so you didn't miss out on a lot. The architecture was a lot more complex.

I thought the architecture was sublime. ARM / RISC-OS development was a joy.
