Das ist kein 6502
I received an email from CPU-builder Dieter Müller, describing his very impressive M02 project to build a custom CPU binary compatible with the 6502, using standard 74LS and similar parts. In short, a project quite similar to my own, except that he’s already done it. Take a look at the photos and hardware description on his site http://freenet-homepage.de/dieter.02/m02.htm. He even got the Commodore 64 kernel and BASIC running on the M02.
Just for posterity, I wanted to link to the new URL for Dieter Mueller’s M02 writeup: http://www.6502.org/users/dieter/m02/m02.htm
There are tons of weird, awesome, and inspiring projects there.
