Commander X16

Wow. It's been over a year since my last update: So, since my last post, I've lost everything in a fire and have been homeless for almost a year. It sucks. A lot. I've been trying to do quite a lot - everything, in fact, but yeah... So: Retrotrek. I've recently started poking at getting back to whe...

Very very happy and excited for this. As much as I'd like to have one of those (homelessness sucks!), I'd much rather have all the developers that have put a lot of time in - especially those in tool and kernel development - have theirs first.  If there's any way I can help, I'd love to. I would li...

Oh man - how can I not take this as personal? Okay. I know what a Raspberry Pi is. I know what a FPGA is. If I wanted a Raspberry PI C64, I'd already have it - because it's already a product. The C64 is already out for about 130 bucks. <a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08GMTJYXJ/" rel="external n...

I feel bad having missed this thread since last month. If this is a Sitdown, so to speak, then I would have to add my two cents...<br /> <br /> I am going to be very real, right now: <u><strong>I am not soldering this project together.</strong></u> If you wanna charge us us $25*8 hours markup, be m...

The marriage to backwards compatibility is directly at odds with current day Personal Computer Usage. I love the idea of maybe getting something put into a socket or expansion port - possibly with a daughterboard because that's retro as hell - but it's more important to make the computer work to th...

This would be better off like a Dual Core computer but with entire chips. XD Two 6502s, a ROM controller acting as the thread/task manager (HAAAHAHAHAHA) and for the awesome power of...6MHz.

I've never heard of it, but took some time to check it out. I'd have to go back to the specifications for my personal desires: <ul> <li> I want a computer I can regularly use. That's the fun of it. </li> <li> I'm fine with a 8-bit CPU. The Mega65 is using a modern FPGA to build the circuit logic of...

Okay, so it's been some months - Disaster has not been mitigated, so where am I? Projects wise, I'm recovering. I'm going to be recovering. It's very sad. I've lost quite a lot. For THIS game, though - I am slowly re-piecing together the design of the game, but I'm definitely on hold until my found...
