How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Leave RISC OS

“Last month, I thought I left RISC OS. After 19 years of using Acorn or Acorn-derived computers, my love affair is no longer. I sit here writing this on my Mac Mini, and very happy I am with it too.

And it’s weird – because, in some strange way, I thought I would be using RISC OS forever. In January 2005, I said: ‘There’s people who annoy me on the RISC OS scene, and I still wouldn’t think of leaving. The nice people more than cancel it out, and besides – I just couldn’t really do without using RISC OS.’ So what changed?”
