oric
For about a year or so when I was a child, I owned an Oric Atmos. I didn't have many games for it, and it was quickly replaced with a C64. I never saw another Oric before or since.
A couple of years ago, I decided to look into all things Oric again, and found that the best and most popular Oric emulator was a discontinued MS-DOS based one. So I decided to write one entirely from scratch. So I did. Every part of the emulation was written from scratch, CPU, video, AY audio, everything. The things I do for fun, eh?
And soon i will be bringing Oric emulation to the Wii. Which is nice.

Still got a Oric Atmos (in a Dragon 32 case...don't ask I was young) and an Oric 1 lurking someone round here. Alway remember wanting the floppy drive add-on....but Tangerine (French I believe) went bust before I ever saw one for sale. Ironically as the Atmos was my first computer, I ever bought with my own money...I still see it with Rose tinted glasses and another irony you could pick games up for it for at least a year or two after, cheaper than you could Spectrum and 64 games. It didnt last long tho....Commodore moved to Corby and so there was a steady black market in 64 gear so I went that away soon after.Posted 04-03-2010 at 04:24 AM by Boudicca
