So, put all together and the T and B work fine now. Of course the K key is playing up. So more contact cleaner, more battering of the keycap and all is good. Time to give it another test, no outrun on the elk, but crazee rider will have to do.

got to test my new electron last night, hooked it to the ferrari, loaded a few games using my phone and cracking website called PlayUEF (8bitkick.cc/playuef.html) an online cassette emulator for bbc and electron. easy to get games running. had a play with paperboy, hunchback and some chuckie egg.
the only issue with it is the B key on keyboard doesnt seem to work. going to give the system a clean over the weekend, so hopefully its just grime and contact cleaner will sort it.

More Electron coding, and this time we get going with Modes and Colours, looking at the 6 screen modes available on the Elk.

Also look at some commands that help with coding too. Ooh… 😮

It’s an Acorn Electron coding video. Something different per chance? 🤔


This is the start of a BASIC programming journey for me.

Fancy coming along for the ride? 😁

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.)

The #AcornElectron - the little machine that could. This cheaper alternative to the #BBCMicro was released in the UK in 1983, and gained its own version of Elite the following year. Not as capable as other Elites, but still a must-have for the machine. See ALT text for links.
