Reply to thread "Acorn tried to combat falling sales by launching the high-powered Archimedes in 1987 but this also floundered because of lack of software." I'm getting pretty sick of the way a lot of people just dismiss 10 years of Acorn history like this. Even ignoring everything else, it dominated education - that's hardly a faliure. It just comes across as a lack of research. moss on 21/1/05 3:24PM [ Reply | Permalink | Report ] Please login before posting a comment. Use the form on the right to do so or create a free account.
