Hi Stu B, you mentioned racing Orac (winder) in the 90's. Was she called Orac back then? do you know the history of the name?
regards
Neil

I'm not sure, possibly Blakes 7 (The computer), but could be wrong.

I thought the computer in Blakes Seven was called Zen...

Zen was the ship, they had a portable computer that was a genius called Orac, which they could shut up. That came later on.

Hey thanks I thought also Blakes 7.... then starting looking deeper and found Orac may have been used to describe 'Oracle' in a kind of Merlin's Latin. I could not find much information on this, so Blakes 7 is looking favourite.
