It may be a legend but I recall hearing that the BBC Elite assembly code contained a message for would-be hackers. Scrolling through it with a hex editor you'd apparently come across a message saying "Does your mother know you do this?" This sort of thing wasn't uncommon. I remember lookin...

Hmm - perhaps I ought to start introducing cumulative (but minor) legal penalties for clumsy driving around cops and stations.
Damn, shouldn't have said anything. Now Daddy's going to take our toys away. :(

NoSleep only composed the Main Theme - not the docking music (which is true to O.G Elite) Since No Sleep did such a great job with the title music perhaps he could jazz up the docking theme too? I find the current version a bit too "Casio/electronic" if you know what I mean. (So I really ...

I hated the tactical scanner in FFE, so I don't like where this is going... I kind of leery about a 3D scanner too. The implementations I've seen always seem to detract from the main screen somehow.
