This screenshot shows the current ROM listing for Station 1. It has the standard Acorn 1-Megabit ROM, occupying slots 9 to 15.

In ROM socket 8, the only socket which can be used internally without losing sideways RAM, is the Computer Concepts MegaROM which contains Inter-Word, Inter-Sheet and Inter-Chart.

Sideways RAM banks 4 to 7 are free and the remaining 4 ROM slots are occupied by the contents of the two cartridges plugged into Station 1. The ROMBox is run off slot 1 and is currently tuned to Teletext.

ROM 3 is Acorn ANFS version 4.25, the latest release, and ROM 2 contains Sprow's splendid DOSFS, a utility for reading and writing DOS formatted discs on BBC machines with a 1770 series floppy disc controller.

The remaining ROM, 0, contains my own set of templates for use with Inter-Word. This is my standard set of blank documents which I use when working with Inter-Word and I put them in a ROM Filing System ROM image created using the Watford Electronics ROM Manager utility ROM.
