A teacher friend of mine asked me what I knew about the "BBC Computer", which
the BBC in England is said to have distrubuted to many schools there, along
with what is said to be lots of great educational software.  
  As you may have guessed from the fact that I'm posting here, I had no idea
what he was talking about!  I would be interested in any information you may
have on this computer, hardware in particular.  My friend is more interested
in the software side, but I don't think this is really the right newsgroup
to ask about software (judgeing from some of the Benchmark discussions I've
seen :-)   Suggestions about which other newsgroups would be good for posting
this question in would be useful too.  
  Incidently, if anyone in the SF Bay area happens to have one of these things,
I would like to here from them...
                                                    thanx,
                                                        theo
