- Following much investigation, disassembly etc, here is a summary of the
- RISC OS 3 Credits which work on my machines:
-
- RISC OS 3.00
- ============
-
- When the RISC OS 3.00 title screen is displayed, quickly type the letters
- 'r-m-t-m-d', and if you get the timing right, photographs of the RISC OS 3
- Development team will be displayed on screen.
-
- Go to the RISC OS 3.00 Info Window (from the switcher icon). Click on the
- letters 'r-m-t-m-d' from the words 'Acorn Computers Ltd' using the MENU
- button, and a long list of credits will be flashed up.
-
-
- RISC OS 3.10
- ============
-
- The photograph facility appears to have been removed.
-
- To access the info window credits, click on the letters 't-e-a-m' from
- 'Acorn Computers Ltd' using the MENU button, and a (different) long list
- of credits will be displayed. (If you click in the wrong places, the
- machine *may* crash).
-
-
- Have fun!
-
-
- Simon.

- ****************************************************************
- I went to the Watford Electronics Open Day a couple of days ago,
- and was showing the RISC OS 3.10 feature to a friend when a certain
- Acorn chap came up and said 'Oh, you know about that - there's
- another hidden feature to display some photos, but I'm not going
- to tell you how to get it!'. I proceeded to tell him that the
- keys are 'r-m-t-m-d', and it doesn't work with 3.10, and he
- promptly disappeared!
-
- If I hadn't known this, I would have been rather annoyed by
- his attitude.
