Nope... My ZX81 was stolen (amazing eh?). But I still have some of my source-code, written by hand (I had no printer).

I sold my BBC to buy an Atari. Since the source code was on 5 1/2 inch floppy disks, I gave them to the buyer. He probably just reformatted them.

The problem with the Beeb was that none of my friends had one, which made it a lot less fun, than say the Atari. Still I learnt a lot on it, making a voice synthesizer among other things. I also first programmed the WD 1772 on the Beeb.

In some ways it was better than the Atari: I installed "bebug", a debugger on a rom into it so I always had a debugger available. I also had something rather like the "Ultimate ripper", except it was useful and reliable (unlike the Amiga version): you could save and restore the full state of the machine to a floppy at any point. This was great for finding bugs, or saving your train of thought when a parent said it was bedtime.

If I ever had time, which I don't, I'd be really curious to see what could be done on a ZX81 with the knowledge I now have... or for that matter on the ST.
