Acorn A5000 Alpha. 37.5MHz ARM clock, 16.67MHz (60ns) RAM clock... 31799 SICK 1.28 Dhrystones/sec... wild.
This is nipping at the heels of an ARM610 RISC PC.

Now I just need to find a copy of Flight Simulator Toolkit for the Acorn Archimedes and I've got the full set. #retrocomputing #riscos #AcornComputers

This isn't a repair one should consider doing lightly. But sometimes there's no alternative. #retrocomputing #electronics #acornarchimedes #AcornComputers

Been to the auction today....
Came back with:
2 x Atari 800
1 x Acorn archimedes 310 and monitor
2 x BBC micros
1x Acorn electron with tape recorder

I may have overspent a bit

Ah, the thrilling saga of Acorn Computers, Version 0.6 Beta! 🚀 Dive into this *riveting* tech history that’s still "under construction" since 2004. Spoiler alert: It’s about as official as a Wikipedia stub and twice as outdated. 😂📚

So my RiscPC has packed up again. Not anything major this time thankfully, but for whatever reason my boot SD has corrupted and now the built-in IDE isn't seeing any SD or CF card. I think the best course of action is to get one of those new ZIDEFS podules as that is verified to work with those CF adapters... But that's gonna be part of a larger re-rebuild I want to do - so expect a "Part 2" to that video I did eventually! 😅

For now, the Acorn is gonna sit in a sad state waiting for me to afford to fix it... :blobfoxcry2:

This weekend I'm heading to the UK's National Museum of Computing for an Econet LAN party (late 70-90s networking tech by Acorn Computers). Going to try and create the world's biggest Econet network, free entry if you bring a machine, so I added Econet to my BBC Master.

I probably won't be able to stream from it without being really annoying to everyone around me, but if I can find a non-antisocial way, I will!
