Other Bazaar Boards

HI, I saw your post about, what ever happened to John Bell. We were friends in high school, but I lost touch with him. Yesterday I learned he passed away. He is listed as deceased on our high school web site. Do you know any other information about John? Thanks, Wayne http://classreport.org/main/classdirectory.asp?dname=/usa/ca/san_mateo/smhs… The John Bell 6502 board used to be advertised in the back pages of pre-1980 Byte magazines, along with a selection of other JB cards. I seem to recall the 6502 card was minimal-chip system essentially aimed at "embedded processor" type applications. So I don't think it came with a preprogrammed EPROM; you were expected to develop your own firmware for it. They had another bare board for a video display terminal based on an Intel 8085 (basically an implementation of the circuit in an Intel application note) and they also sold some low-cost interface cards for Apple II parallel interfacing using the 6522 VIA chips that were then popular in Commodore Pets. I remember building a couple of those JB interfaces for lab experiments. I wonder who "John Bell" was and whatever happened to him? Arlen Michaels
