They'll most likely redirect you to a product called Virtual Acorn - £79 minimum to emulate an Acorn on your Windows, with no clear indication as to what emulator will be used, or what BIOS images will be included, if they're not bloody encrypted or shit like that. And it seems that the Acorn zealots are even more deluded about the machine's commercial status than the Amiga ones. And none of the rom collection burners even support Archimedes stuff full stop, it appears. I absolutely cannot for the life of me find them. Now while Google tends to locate most other general BIOSes a lot easier, Acorn ones seem to be like the Holy Grail. I was willing to try out two new Archimedes emulators called Arculator and RPCEmu, and realised I needed to find the appropriate BIOS rom images first. Thanks to the efforts of the diehard Archimedes community and their "We Hate You" stance on simple, easy emulation procedures.
