Spectrum vs BBC Micro. It's Serious!

Well, I've got my uniform ready and my protractor in its box for school tomorrow so I have nothing to do. I do however remember an argument at school in 1982 and I never did get the definitive answer. So:

Was the BBC B really better than the Speccie? I mean, come on! Stands to wossname. Also, the C64 wasn't bad but no use for Jet Set Willy. The Vic 20 was pants and the Acorn Atom and Oracle were worse. Oh, and I was the kid with the Dragon 32 and I even had a thing called an Aquarius. So - which was the best? Please tell me and let me relive my overpriviledged adolesence. Mind you, you couldn't get them naked women on the BBC Micro, not without a lot of Pokes.

Now that I remember it, the argument ended in a fight so let's be nice - I'm not as fit as I used to be (No Class A medical for me this year). However, if it turns out that the Speccie really is the best then I'll look up Timothy Warren in the phone book and kick him in the goolies during lunch tomorrow.
