Seen the tribute to the BBC Micro? :)

[ATARI.]

Not sure if this has been pointed out before (pretty sure it wasn't there in v1.1) but the cockpit keyboard is the same layout as the BBC Micro...

Beautiful little tribute there FD

EDIT: For those too young to remember, this was the computer used to create the original Elite.

They showed off the keyboard previously before the first alpha was released.

I was greatly envious of those at school who could afford the BBC Micro - my Acorn Electron was still wonderfully marvellous but there was just something *special* about that machine.
