article and partly because there are a number of rather ignorant, yet arrogant, PC users inhabiting some of the comp.sys.acorn.* newsgroups who love to complain about RISC OS and prosthetalize about how good PC applications are to their RISC OS counterparts - usually without the skill set or experience to make a valid judgement. I'm all for argument, but when people argue through ignorance or though blinkers, I feel like shouting 'Oi! No!' in their faces, but instead I'll settle for
writing this article."

He probably meant Apple II systems (late 70's and early 80's for Europlus II).
To summ up
Apple II was introduced in 1978
Acorn's BBC model A & B late 1981, early 1982
Apple Mac was introduced in 1984
Atari ST and Amiga 1000 in 1985
Acorn's Archimedes in 1987
