Good luck! (*not* meant in a "that's going to be difficult" way :)

Some useful reference stuff if you haven't found it already:

http://www.stairwaytohell.com/articles/AU-AcornHistory.html
http://www.aether.demon.co.uk/computing/acorn/codenames.html
http://www.nostalgia8.nl/banks/machinelst.htm

... regarding the codenames, I asked about others on usenet in 
comp.sys.acorn.hardware a while ago; a search via google should show up the 
thread - there were a few which weren't on the list.

cheers
