I am very much a geek and I'm into retro computing. I have a collection Acorn machines (can anyone remember those at School?) as well as more modern hardware like a Iyonix and Raspberry Pi that run Acorn's RISC OS.

Anyway, it looks like Durham County Council were (and perhaps still are) Acorn/RISC OS users, as they used (and possibly still do) the platform to produce the timetables for their bus stops: https://stardot.org.uk/forums/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=23134

Can't remember whether it was a BBC Micro or an Acorn, but I remember playing a text-based Wizard of Oz game at school. Would have been around 1986/87-ish.

 t was possibly my first ever experience with using a computer.
