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. ****************************************************************
