many moons ago I used to enjoy faffing with the old BBC micro, - in particular controlling external things from the user port, - motors electronic stuff etc. do you reckon this 'ere raspberry pi would rekindle that enthusiasm and be as easy to program etc? -taking into account its 30 years on and Ive stagnated a bit since. ?&FE62=00

Put RISC OS onto an SD card, and you'll be all awash with nostalgia
And ?&FE62=00 will still work (or at least break something)
