Making the Most of the Micro was a TV series broadcast in 1983 as part of the BBC’s Computer Literacy Project, following on from the earlier series, The Computer Programme. Unlike its predecessor, Making the Most of the Micro explored in greater depth the technical details of computing and the potential uses that microcomputers could be put to, once again mainly making use of the BBC Micro for demonstration purposes in the studio.
