The gunners used to have Sega on their shirts. This was changed to Dreamcast during one of their European campaigns. They were playing in Italy and someone pointed out to them that Sega is Italian slang for W**K.

And who can forget Kempston Competition-Pro Joysticks! I never liked the quickshot as you couldn't do very well on "Daley Thompson's Decathlon" with it because it was too big to waggle.

daqmn i broke a few joysticks playing that. mum stoped me playing it as i needed a new one every week

When I was fixing computers, we used to use a ZX80 as a wedge to keep the workshop door open. !Removed! things go for loads on Ebay now. Dammit.

Errm....It was a ZX80.......And it's still in the loft, in it's original box. Don't like to part with things, you know......

My Grandfather was one of the designers on Leo, one of the very early computers. Leo was designed for Lyons corner coffee shops, it calculated volumes of ingredients for the bakery to produce the right numbers of cakes.
