A technical history of Acorn Computers


(Version 0.6 Beta) These pages contain a fairly brief technical history of Acorn Computers. I have decided to focus on the technology because that is where my interests lie.

These pages contain a fairly brief technical history of Acorn Computers. Only very major non-technical events in Acorn's history have been included. Also, I don't know very much at all about the Acorn Network Computer, Set Top Box 2, Stork or NewsPad, and I can't remember when the StrongARM was transferred to Intel.
