Imagine you’re time-warped back to 1979 and tasked with constructing a personal computer. Could you do it? [RadicalBrad] thinks he can, and his 6502-based “Super VIC” build looks … ...

[Mitsuru Yamada] states that one of the goals for this 6502 computer build was to make it strong enough to survive real-world usage. In that regard alone we’d call this a success; the die-cast ...

Retro computing lets you get to grips with technology's history, showing how far modern computers have come. Here's how to build your own working Apple I replica.

According to RR Auction, this Apple computer is only one of two known surviving NTI-based Apple-1 computers compared to the more common Apple-1s with MOS 6502 microprocessors.

The iconic 6502 processor is still alive and well, and it's serving embedded applications with production volumes in millions of units.

"6502 Professional Development System," software by Human Engineering System (HES) for the VIC-20 microcomputer, consists of one cassette and an instruction booklet in the original box.

It came with a MOS 6502 CPU running at 1 MHz, a whopping 4KB of RAM, and an optional cassette interface card that allowed users to store programs on audio cassette tapes.

It used the same 6502 CPU as the BBC Micro and shipped with 32KB of RAM. It also featured color graphics capabilities and a built-in BASIC interpreter.

That's because, in addition to a faster variant of the excellent 8-bit MOS 6502 CPU found in the Apple II and Commodore PET, they also included Atari's dedicated ANTIC, GTIA, and POKEY ...
