   But The Mighty Micro by Christopher Evans is required reading
   https://archive.org/details/mightymicro0000evan

   Also a profoundly influential television series

   You should also watch Now The Chips are Down

   Without Evans' book, we wouldn't have had the BBC Micro, so Acorn would have been obscure, and ARM would not have happened.

   Also strongly recommend Tilly Blyth's The Legacy of the BBC Micro
