BBC Micro OS (all versions?) Easter Egg - Credits in BBC Micro OS ROM

1. Find an old BBC Micro or a ROM image of the operating system.

2. If a BBC Micro, extract the OS ROM (not the BASIC ROM) and read the contents.

3. Look at locations 3C00-3EFF. These are 'dead' space in the ROM, normally hidden by custom hardware.

4. Marvel at how many names you can fit into 768 bytes.
