Sorry for this being off topic, but I thought I'd share some memories from someone who was there at the time.
I remember playing the original Elite when it started life on the BBC Micro (not known for it's games at all), I would have played it on that 1st at a friends house, then on my 48K Spectrum I guess (yep it really did only have 48K of RAM and games came on tapes too).
Back then the graphics were awesome for a game at home, remember we had grown up on some great vector games in the arcades mainly from Atari.
Countless hours spent going from 1 planet to the next doing that rotating docking procedure over and over to buy cheap and sell high, with a bit of space combat thrown in too.
