Question: Were the Philips P2000 and BBC Master the names of two early home computers?
Context: The S-100 bus or Altair bus, "IEEE696-1983 (withdrawn)", was an early computer bus designed in 1974 as a part of the Altair 8800.  The S-100 bus was the first industry standard expansion bus for the microcomputer industry.  S-100 computers, consisting of processor and peripheral cards, were produced by a number of manufacturers.  The S-100 bus formed the basis for homebrew computers whose builders (e.g., the Homebrew Computer Club) implemented drivers for CP/M and MP/M.  These S-100 microcomputers ran the gamut from hobbyist toy to small business workstation and were common in early home computers until the advent of the IBM PC (which some of them outperformed). The Mini-Cassette, often written minicassette, is a magnetic tape audio cassette format introduced by Philips in 1967.  It is used primarily in dictation machines and was also employed as a data storage for the Philips P2000 home computer.  Unlike the Compact Cassette, also designed by Philips, and the later Microcassette, introduced by Olympus, the Mini-Cassette does not use a capstan drive system; instead, the tape is propelled past the tape head by the reels.  This is mechanically simple and allows the cassette to be made smaller and easier to use, but produces a system unsuited to any task other than voice recording, as the tape speed is not constant (averaging 2.4 cm/s) and prone to wow and flutter.  However, the lack of a capstan and a pinch roller drive means that the tape is well-suited to being repeatedly shuttled forward and backward short distances as compared to microcassettes, leading to the Mini-Cassette's use in the first generations of telephone answering machines, and continuing use in the niche markets of dictation and transcription, where fidelity is not critical, but robustness of storage is, and where analog media are still widely preferred. Bubble Bus Software was a publisher of video game software for home computers in the mid-1980s, founded by Mark Meakins and based in Tonbridge, Kent.  Their releases targeted popular home computers of the time, such as the Commodore 64, VIC-20 and ZX Spectrum.  Their most notable release was Starquake. The BBC Master is a home computer released by Acorn Computers in early 1986.  It was designed and built for the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) and was the successor to the BBC Micro Model B.  The Master 128 remained in production until 1993. Acornsoft was the software arm of Acorn Computers, and a major publisher of software for the BBC Micro and Acorn Electron.  As well as games, it also produced a large number of educational titles, extra computer languages and business and utility packages – these included word processor "VIEW" and the spreadsheet "ViewSheet" supplied on ROM and cartridge for the BBC Micro/Acorn Electron and included as standard in the BBC Master and Acorn Business Computer. The Philips P2000T home computer was Philips' first real entry in the home computer market, after the Philips Videopac G7000 game system (better known in the U.S. as the Magnavox Odyssey2) which they already sold to compete with the Atari 2600 and similar game systems.  There was also an P2000M version with an additional 80-column card for use with a monochrome monitor.  This version shipped with a monitor cabinet also housing a dual 5.25" floppy drive. A type-in program, type-in listing, or sometimes just type-in, is a listing of source code printed in a computer magazine or book, meant to be entered on the computer's keyboard by the reader in order to run the program.  Type-in programs were common in the early home computer era from the late 1970s through the 1980s when the main memory of 8-bit home computers was measured in kilobytes and most computer owners did not have access to networks such a Bulletin board systems.  A computer magazine could contain multiple games or other programs for a fraction of the cost of commercial disk or cassette based software, but the user had to spend an hour or more typing each one in.  Numerous magazines such as "Softalk", "Compute! ", "ANALOG Computing", and "Ahoy! " dedicated much of each issue to type-in programs. Digital Retro (full title Digital Retro: The Evolution and Design of the Personal Computer) is a coffee table book about the history of home computers and personal computers.  It was written by Gordon Laing, a former editor of "Personal Computer World" magazine and covers the period from 1975 to 1988 (the era before widespread adoption of PC compatibility).  Its contents cover home computers, along with some business models and video game consoles, but hardware such as minicomputers and mainframes is excluded. Shao-lin's Road (少林寺への道 ) , released in certain markets as Kicker, is a 1985 beat 'em up video game released by Konami.  The game was commercially successful, becoming a chart hit in the arcades.  It was ported to several early home computers and has also been featured in classics compilations "Konami Arcade Classics" in 1998 and "" in 2007 , and was released for Microsoft's Game Room in 2010 . This article covers various significant pieces of software available for the Atari 8-bit home computers (400/800, XL and XE series).  Because the company marketed them as home computers, games dominated the 8-bit software library.
