A few years ago, we received a very exciting donation to the Museum. Matthew Bostock spotted a familiar object at a tip in Derby. A BBC Microcomputer! He saved it from being recycled and donated to the NVM After some expert TLC from our very talented technician, the Micro was brought back to life and has been sitting proudly on display in the museum since. You can even play it! Originally released in 1981, Acorn Computers developed the BBC Micro as part of the BBC Computer Literacy Project. A popular museum exhibit, it offers a dose of nostalgia for visitors who went to school in the 80s. #videogamepreservation #retrogaming
