Hi Richard I tried to introduce you to the Head Techy of H2G2 but he must have missed the post. http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/h2g2/F5165626?thread=3618020

I've been busy packing boxes as we're moving house at the moment.

I cut my programming teeth with BBC BASIC on a BBC Model B. In fact, that's where I started my career (as did several of the original h2g2 team). Simpler days.

We now have the Rasberry Pi that may well take Computer training in schools back to the 80's. I understand that BBC Basic is built in into that little piece of magic. A bit like taking specific chips out of the old BBC'B.
This should give a whole new meaning to 'Computer Literacy' and should be picked up in this entry. A13735596

But has it got CESIL (yet )?
