Submission + - MOS 6505 inventor Chuck Peddle at VCF this weekend
An anonymous reader writes: This is the coolest thing I've heard in a long time. Chuck Peddle, who led development of the MOS Technology 6502 chip, will give a lecture (via videoconference) at the Vintage Computer Festival in New Jersey this weekend. Chuck and his team used the 6502 in their KIM-1 computer and then in the Commodore Pet. Of course, it was also the heart of Apple's early computers. Chuck will be joined (in person at the VCF) by other early C= engineers Bil Herd, Bob Russell, and Dave Haynie. The VCF's web site is vintage.org. It's only an hour from NYC and Philly.
