BBC Micro
A series of 6502-based personal computers launched by {Acorn
Computers} Ltd. in January 1982, for use in the British
Broadcasting Corporation's educational programmes on
computing. The computers are noted for their reliability (many
are still in active service in 1994) and both hardware and
software were designed for easy expansion. The 6502-based
computers were succeeded in 1987 by the Acorn Archimedes
family.
xbeeb is a BBC Micro emulator for Unix and X11.

CP/M
(CP/M) An early microcomputer {operating
system} written by Gary Kildall of Digital Research for
8080 and Zilog Z80-based 8-bit computers.
Many of CP/M's features and conventions strongly resemble
those of early DEC operating systems such as TOPS-10,
OS/8, RSTS and RSX-11.
CP/M was very popular in the late 1970s and Bill Gates
suggested using it as the OS for the IBM PC. IBM wanted
to own and control the OS completely but could not get Digital
Research to sign a non-disclosure agreement, which killed the
deal. CP/M was virtually wiped out by MS-DOS after the
release of the IBM PC in 1981.
The file system of MS-DOS was patterned closely on CP/M's,
including the use of 8 + 3 (upper case) character file names.
The first version (MS-DOS 1.0) was even limited to a single
directory, like CP/M.
