Well that's weird, then. Mine might have been Jon Thackray's - he wrote the
keyboard code for the A500, and I have some of his old media; it's possible
there was a TUBE podule in there, too, I suppose.
Oh, and to quote him on Brazil: "Brazil was the name for the earliest ARM 2nd
processor OS AFAIR, written by Roger." - so Michael may well be right there,
and some ARM copros had non-Brazil ROMs...
(I just checked my photos, and unfortunately I don't have a picture of my
board; I didn't realise its significance until this thread...)
