I think of it this way.
       How long does it take for a PC to boot and load an email program or web
browser. How long would it take for a BBC to do the same, especially if the
web browser and mail client were held in ROM.

No contest is it.

Andrew.

Hmmm, well I understand that it would be cool to see it working...but the
praticality of it would surely mean that you couldn't really use it on an
everyday basis, right?

Or is that just it?  The coolness and sense of achievement to see it
actually work?
