My homemade, hand-wired 6502 machine, presented in honor of #ChuckPeddleDay. 32K RAM, 16K ROM, 6850 ACIA, running at 921 kHz. It has the Apple 1 WozMon for a monitor, plus 4 BASICs, FOCAL, and Tiny PILOT for high-level programming.

La Universidad de Main debería darle un mejor crédito a #chuckpeddle, ya que gracias a él, existe el procesador MOS 6502, el ordenador KIM-1 y la Commodore PET que dieron inicio a la era del PC.

The office nerds held a special "show and tell" in honor of #ChuckPeddleDay. Chuck designed the 6502 CPU that made so many home computers possible and led to the microcomputer revolution of the 1980s.

The KIM-1 was Commodore’s first big hit 🚀. If you want to learn more about it and the revolution it started 💡, you can read about it in this book 📘:

The KIM-1 was a single board computer with a keypad and six LED displays designed to highlight the power of the then-new 6502 CPU designed by Chuck Peddle and team at MOS.

It took some time to finally publish this program for the KIM-1 and today is a good day for it. Udo Juerss is the author.

My #65o2 Project right now:
Translating a KIM-1 game into german:
@fishhack66.bsky.social ported the game "Santa Paravia" (1978) to KIM-1 BASIC. And I'm translating it into german.

The KIM-1 got its name from Keyboard Input Monitor. It was designed as a 6502 development system but became a cult computer in its own right. It was first released in 1976 for about $245.

Learning 6502 programming is still a valid way to hone your low-level coding skills. The 6502 is perhaps one of the earliest RISC CPUs, so you could trace the path from it to the Arm CPUs in just about everything today.
