Although these 8­bit computers were crude by today's standards, they gave ordinary people the opportunity to write computer programs and games.

The 'Electron' was Acorn's attempt at addressing the price issue. They sold a number of units, however despite being more powerful on the hardware side, the range of game titles was significantly smaller than rivals Sinclair and Commodore.
