Description

Welcome to a remarkable part of early 1980s home computing.

This app focuses on the Jupiter ACE experience and is loaded with example software. Please note that the system is completely self-contained and this means you cannot remotely add code, more games etc.

Background:

The Jupiter ACE was a home computer released in September 1982. It was created by Jupiter Cantab, a Cambridge company founded by Steven Vickers and Richard Altwasser, who were both involved in the development of Sinclair computers. The ACE distinguished itself from other home micros of that era by opting to include the Forth computer language instead of BASIC.

Despite a short lived sales period the computer earned the respect of those owners that embraced it for development. It is now sought after by collectors, fetching many times the value of other competitor computers released at that time.

The Jupiter ACE trademark, logo, ROM and many of the included programs are under trademark and copyright licenses from – Subvert Ltd

Many thanks to all the developers of the loaded ACE software who have all granted permission to include their titles in the app and enthusiasts that helped source content. We hope this list of software will continue to grow in future updates.

Also special thanks to those owners of the original computer that have helped verify the accuracy of this app.
