I may have 'accidentally' bought an Acorn Electron computer on ebay. So, never owned one, but did play with them in boots n whsmith as a kid when i was in. plus we had the old BEEB micro at school. so what to do first when it arrives? (I'll definately be checking the outrput of the powerpack before pluggin it in. learned that lesson well, RIP atari lynx.) #retrocomputing #acornComputers #acornelectron #bbccomputer #retrogaming

hey appdevs, actualy, marketing types.. any chance, and i know its probably been asked before. but could perhaps not use MY at the start of your brand as an appname. or worse rename your app to that. I mean you spend insane money over decades to get your brand embedied into the minds of everyone then name your app something completely different. Its like your naming apps for toddlers. my first big book of dinosaurs, myvirginmedia, and myRAC.
sorry its been a day lol
