I didn't say anything about a Mac. Though I accept I am taking it way off topic with my little grumble. Really I'm just still smarting at being told off :-) It absolutely wouldn't have been an Apple II; I never saw an Apple II in the UK until they were retro. It would have been a port to the (similarly 6502-based) BBC Model B. We had loads of those in schools [0]. A bit of a google suggests that it was likely based on code from a 1978 computer listing, though it would have been 1983 when it was inflicted on us. Funnily enough I don't think we spent more than half an hour with the computer. A week or so with the assignment. [0] the Apple II would have been more expensive, and didn't provide the opportunity for schools-television-related content or a loan of the county's (truly groundbreaking) Domesday Book laser disk system: https://collection.sciencemuseumgroup.org.uk/objects/co8384600/bbc-domesday-system-community-laserdisc-laser-d https://collection.sciencemuseumgroup.org.uk/objects/co83846...
