On Prototype Acorn Unix-powered A680 lands on eBay:

I'm curious as to why anyone would want this now. What software will run on it? Or is it merely a toy for RISC OS fans who also happen to be unix geeks (like me!)? cables on 18/8/09 12:02PM [ Reply | Permalink | Report ]

On Drobe Awards 2008: The results:

I'm surprised that VRPC for Mac didn't win best commercial product. Perhaps there aren't enough of us using it. Not that I can have any complaint about Artworks and Techwriter - two programs I use a lot. cables on 2/1/09 5:11PM [ Reply | Permalink | Report ]

On Using ROL's 4.02 ROM image in Linux RPCEmu:

helpful, Don't keep us in suspense! I'm getting a Linux Asus eee PC for Christmas and would like to run RPCemu on it. Did you manage to get it to work? cables on 17/12/08 8:14AM [ Reply | Permalink | Report ]

On Who would want an A9home PDA?:

On Who would want an A9home PDA?:

In reply to rjek: I don't have a plug-in keyboard for my Palm PDA: it has a small display of a keyboard that I can tap with a stylus. It works surprisingly well, and I would like to see a similar setup on a RISC OS version. cables on 28/4/08 9:23AM [ Reply | Permalink | Report ]
