Love hearing about the people and stories involved with the creation of Acorn and ARM systems. As a kid I was a big fan of Acorn computers, and still have a soft spot now.

Back then I was really excited when the StrongARM processor came out. The RiscPC, which used it, was significantly more powerful than any previous Acorn and had an innovative case which you could expand by adding ‘slices’ to hold more hardware. It also included an optional 486 processor board to run Windows at the same time.

Remember seeing one machine that someone had expanded to over 15 slices and included a sandwich grill.
