Another interesting thing is that Eidos Interactive started off producing non-linear editing and video compression software for the Acorn Archimedes.
If you do musical composition, Sibelius started off on the Archimedes and was one of its killer apps for a long time. I suspect that it was originally inspired by !Maestro, which came bundled with with RISC OS. I can't recall who wrote !Maestro, but I suspect it may have been Sophie Wilson.
If you've ever seen Who Wants To Be A Millionaire, the production made heavy use of RISC OS based machine to run everything, including produce the on-screen graphics.
