Maybe you were fortunate enough to have the opportunities to really dig it out.  I'm one of those who never got to use an Acorn as extensively as very fast the Windows P.C. became the only viable option to use an industry standard Office suite, get on-line and be productive.  There was nothing else there and everyone was Windows.
