Aah, the memories! Glad there's emulators for most of these things, anyone can try them out virtually. Of course it ain't the same as pushing buttons on the real thing, but it's still fun!
- krallja 3y agoIf you like to push buttons, I have tried these 2 options: 1, Kim Uno: https://obsolescence.wixsite.com/obsolescence/kim-uno-get-or-build-one https://obsolescence.wixsite.com/obsolescence/kim-uno-get-or... - it is basically an Arduino emulating all the hardware of the KIM-1. Battery-powered, and fits in your (large) pocket. 2, PAL-1 replica board: https://www.tindie.com/products/tkoak/pal-1-a-mos-6502-powered-computer-kit/ https://www.tindie.com/products/tkoak/pal-1-a-mos-6502-power... - uses more-commonly-available parts than an original KIM-1 (e.g., 65C02 instead of the original NMOS part, and a RIOT+EPROM, instead of a mask-programmed RRIOT) but still a lot of fun to solder together. The creator has also made an expansion port and lots of gadgets to attach to it, including an optional backplane. Works with a DE-9 serial port! I have connected mine to a Digital VT520 serial terminal, among other things.
