&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/markmoxon/elite-beebasm/master/sources/elite-source.asm"&gt;elite-source.asm - annotated source code for Elite on the BBC Micro&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
Mark Moxon has annotated every single line of the source code for Elite on the BBC Micro, and his annotations are so clear and in-depth that I can follow it despite knowing next to nothing about assembly code (and certainly nothing about writing it for the BBC).

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.panic.com/blog/2009/12/panic-retro-art/"&gt;Panic&amp;#x27;s lost 1982 artwork. Found.&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
Jaw-droppingly beautiful re-imagination of Panic’s software line-up as Atari console products, complete with box art and 80’s watercolour illustrated posters.
