Subject: BBC News - Retro computers on display to fans at

At no point does anyone mention BBC or Acorn in the same as they mention
Spectrums, Commodore or even Orics (apart from the chap saying "this
machine" referring to his Atom) - i wasn't suggesting there were none in
there. We know what they are, but it's a shame as to the layman it's as
if Acorn was glossed over.

       Just one second in is a Model B with two cheese wedges on a
shelf, there is also a shot of an acornsoft game box and the odd machine
with red keys. The A3000 is shown later on running a game in the
background.
