Jupiter ACE 1.1.2

Welcome to a significant chapter in early 1980s home computing.

This application provides an in-depth exploration of the Jupiter ACE experience, complete with a plethora of sample software. It's important to highlight that the system is entirely self-contained, limiting the ability to remotely supplement it with additional code or games.

Background:

• The Jupiter ACE was introduced as a home computer in September 1982. Developed by Jupiter Cantab, a Cambridge-based company founded by Steven Vickers and Richard Altwasser, both renowned for their involvement in Sinclair computers. Setting itself apart from other home microcomputers of its time, the ACE adopted the Forth computer language instead of BASIC.
• Despite its brief presence in the market, the computer garnered admiration from users who embraced it for its developmental capabilities. Today, it is highly sought after by collectors, commanding premium prices compared to competing computers from that era.
• The Jupiter ACE trademark, logo, ROM, and many built-in programs are protected under trademark and copyright licenses held by Subvert Ltd.

Our heartfelt appreciation goes out to all the developers behind the software included with ACE, who generously granted permission for their titles to be featured in this application. Additionally, we extend our gratitude to enthusiasts who assisted in content aggregation. We anticipate a continuous expansion of this software repertoire in forthcoming updates.

Special acknowledgment is due to the original computer owners whose valuable input has contributed to verifying the accuracy of this application.
