More fun with computers
Of course, the Micro Men programme page contains lots of very informative links about the history of computing. But once you think you've learned enough, I'd like to draw your attention to Look Around You's page about Computers. That's where you can discover the most powerful computer ever built in Britain, and play the popular toilet-based computer game, Diarrhea Dan.
