This is a Mac emulator of the BBC Micro Computer from Acorn. There are
both 68k and PPC versions inside the archive. For running this
properly, you must drag 2 ROM files (MOS and BASIC) into the ROMs
folder and rename them "OSROM" and "BASIC". ROM files can be found on
the web.
From the User Guide file:
> The BBC Micro was a computer built by a British company called Acorn
> Computers who now build the RISC-based Archimedes. It appeared in
> the early '80s and was backed by the British Broadcasting Company;
> hence the BBC tag. The BBC even produced a series of TV programmes
> to help beginners new to computing. Primarily designed for schools
> and home use, the BBC Micro was certainly one of the most versatile
> machines of its day, sporting a host of expansion ports and buses
> and equipped with an excellent, structured BASIC which even today is
> still being sold commercially. And, of course, it was the launching
> pad for one of the most endearing games of all time, Elite.
