Besides, wasn't the Rockwell chip the improved version of the original (MOS) 6502, called the 65C02? It had some nifty extra instructions and an extra addressing mode.. --fred

Paperwork to move classiccmps from .ca to .us?

by Robert_Feldman＠jdedwards.com

It used to be for some cameras that you could not import one if it had the logo/name intact. Just covering it with tape or goo was not sufficient -- the name had to be ground off! This condition was imposed by the official US importer, IIRC. -----Original Message----- From: Eric Smith [mailto:eric@brouhaha.com] Sent: Thursday, October 03, 2002 3:02 PM To: cctalk(a)classiccmp.org Subject: Re: Paperwork to move classiccmps from .ca to .us?

Surely they can't do anything to prevent a product they manufactured and that bears their trademark from being imported? Isn't that covered under the doctrine of first sale?

OSI disk basic disk

by Lee.Davison＠merlincommunications.com

Does anyone have an image of the OSI Disk BASIC disk? If not that disk any 'bootable' disk for any of the 6502 OSI Challenger, or compatible, machines. I've managed to replicate the OSI 610 disk interface and get it to read/write onto a DD 3.5" drive. Now I would like to try it out with some 'real' software. Ta much.

The point is that elitists years ago would have said the same thing about the C-64, which is now generally considered a classic.

Re: 10 yearsI find it interesting that I agree with this, but picturing the same text after a %s/PC/C64/g (and other appropriate adjustments) changes my attitude somewhat. --Mike

Having worked on both 6800 and 6502 code, I can assure you that there is no code compatability. The 6502 traded depth in instructions for more page 0 accesses. For most applications, this worked well. Those who worked with Apples will tell you that the OS over used page 0 and didn't leave enough for the users. As was mentioned, there was a 6501 that was pin compatable with the 6800. It was also not code compatable. Rockwell also made a number of embedded 6502 application processors. These are a pain because they are P-MOS and have non-ttl busses. I have these in my old Gottlieb pinball machine ( what we pinheads call spider chips ). Dwight
