Whether it's Mire Mare or a BASIC tape you found in the attic, it needs to be preserved digitally. Post here and experts can help to do so.

Added. We're mostly at or approaching the age where testing reactions on a weekly basis is a good idea.

Hell's bells you're not kidding. Getting below 0.4 secs is hard.

At first I pressed the colour associated with the page, but you can press any key, I tried it again and was about as crap as before. I wonder how it would compare on deadflesh.

Reminds me of trying to see how quickly you could press the start/stop button on your digital watch timer...

Ouch, what a bug :) You can't print your result due a GO TO 2040 instead of GO TO 93. How could he do it in 1983? The program was renumbered by step 1 before released but how this GO TO did not ? Interesting...

Morkin, congratulation, you are very quick! Did you do it with your left or right hand ?

The digital watch test was excellent play in break at school ... stop faster or stop exactly 1 sec ... oh, those times.

Not too hard for sure.
First run I did and I got 2 averages under 0.40 (Magenta 0.39 and White 0.38).

Averaging 400 ms per reaction, it means, 20 PAL frames (20 ms each), which is a lot.

If doing it a second time, I'm sure improvements would surface, since this first run was to understand how it works.

But doing it on an emulador, is not the same thing as on the Speccy rubber keys for sure.
