        Are you sure about the BBC Micro? That bouncing ball was definitely an Amiga demo, at least

        I am. The beeb demo was admittedly a copy, and I can't find a screenshot of it, but it was real :)

        Does anyone remember the BBC Micro version of the Amiga bouncing ball demo with Sweet Dreams as the soundtrack or was this a wet dream?
