Stephen Edwards and Bill Mensch - The Genesis of the 6502 Microprocessor

[@tmbarral664]

so you're telling me the 6502 exists because some guys didn't want to move to Texas !? :oD Always funny to see how great things can come to life because of a glitch in the space continuum ;)

[@viktorhugo8252]

It was my first processor, many followed in the next 48 years.

Wow... I loved the little-endiannes motivation part. Really a very effective and optimized design...

[@jamesharrison7350]

This is a very special interview. Thank you

[@DavidL-ii7yn]

Thank you! Having learned assembly language as teenager on the 6502, then moved on (back?) to mini-computers at work...then various RISC and CISC machines since... this filled in some missing questions about the 6502 that have nagged me from time to time.

[@JeffMarraccini]

Great interview! Thank you both!

[@fecheverria]

Awesome interview. thanks a lot.

[@peternielsen8362]

6502 was the greatest. First was the Commodore Pet, then the Apple 2e, then on to the Atari 800.

[@EnsignRho]

Awesome. Always like listening to Bill.

[@jeffnay6502]

Who names are on the various patents for the MOS Technology 6502?

[@bobroberts8500]

So uh, how much are they worth and where's a good place to find interested buyers?

[@ssdravidian]

hmmm..i thought Bill was a Layout engineer....Chuck mentioned it in a book...

[@rabidbigdog]

"Arizona is kinda beautiful, Texas is kinda flat ..." Hahaha.

[@jeffnay6502]

Shouldn't you have changed that from " Stephen Edwards and Bill Mensch - The Genesis of the 6502 Microprocessor" To include the Ring Leader "Chuck Peddle, Stephen Edwards and Bill Mensch - The Genesis of the 6502 Microprocessor" ???
