New doc to be posted on Web site

Hello, all: Through the kindness of our own Bill Yakowenko, I've been given a copy of the MOS Microcomputers Hardware Manual, which I scanned last night. It appears that this document is like a summary of and a design guidelines white paper for the MOS 65xx product line, but it includes information traditionally found in the data sheets, like pinouts, pin function descriptions, mask-programmable options, chip architecture and function, plus so much more! The chips covered explicitly in the book include the 6501, 6502, 6503-05, 6520, and 6530. It also describes "System Diagnosis Using Hardware Programmer Aids", which mentions the KIM, TIM (Teletype Input Monitor), and the MDT (Microcomputer Development Terminal). The TIM is implemented as a single 6530 chip. The MDT appears to be acomplete development system: "MDT is a prepackaged system and, therefore, should not have the problems described above {debugging the initial system design} unless it is being used in in circuit emulation mode. Therefore, the user will be primarily be debugging his programs and his basic interconnection to his I/O devices with the MDT." This is a large scan, and will be posted in parts. Enjoy.
