Quick question... I was reliving those old BBC Micro days, because they are doing to do an exibit at the Science Museum about it. In 1985, after the they brought in the computerised weather graphics, I wrote a programme for the BBC Micro that was published in the May 1985 Personal Computer World, called "Weatherwise" after seeing a short programme about how they were created on BBC 1 (perhaps 2).
I can remember that it was a Quantel Paintbox that did the colour graphics, but my programme aped the monoschome "workstation" that was used to created the graphics? Does anyone know what these workstations were? Were they Xerox machine? http://ukfree.tv/pcw/pcwindex.htm Also, If anyone also knows where I can get a copy of the 1985 PCW, I would be really grateful - someone chucked my collection in the bin. Cheers Brian Butterworth PS: Nice to see my name (which was after the BBC Micro word processor Wordwise) got reused! http://www.bbc.co.uk/weather/weatherwise/
