Tell me what else do you remember about the Acorn System 1?
Answer:
Packing them in boxes (upstairs at 4a Market Hill): the whole company would stand around tables (a production square) and put in the right components (me, Hermann, Hermann?s then fianc? Stephen, Chris). We all did pretty much anything: I ended up as Hermann?s secretary before we could afford one!
There used to be problems with answering the phone: one chap would ring up and say ?I have got an Acorn, it does not work? often enough for it to become a legend. We got very tired of kits ? the highlight being a guy who assembled his Atom with glue because he knew that heat (solder) would damage them ? so that coloured the BBC machine a lot.
