Guy expands 6502 to 16M address space by intercepting the databus and re-mapping unused opcodes and clever use of the spurious signals generated by the cpu when executing other undefined opcodes, adds a few registers to make the whole thing

It should be called 'microsoft windows'. That way we can have 'Apple windows', 'digital research windows' and so on. Window managers are a class and you should not be able to monopolize a class name without some sort of addition.

Slight problem, on exiting the page and reloading the changes are all gone (firefox) No login is great for single users but I think you should persist changes across reloads.

They led to an explosion of patents on genes, not to an explosion of applicable research. The research would have happened anyway, maybe a bit later or maybe not as patent directed.

You need to get better at the administration side of your business pronto. What's getting you down is that you are apparently unable to control the relationship with your customers, both financially and with respect to the scope and definit

Extremely clever use of the illegal opcodes in the original 6502, check out the way he fakes the output of the databus to the processor by pretending a different opcode was read than the one that was actually read. Hacking at its finest.

This would be a lot better if it were more realistic, it banks on you not being able to make smart decisions to ram the various factoids down your throat. It would be a much better experience if the basics were spread out over multiple mont

True, but a minor head overhaul would have been about 1/2 an hour with 'roadside tools' (say to replace a valve spring) possibly during your trip to grandma. Today that same repair would be a couple of days in the shop, requiring tens of th

The 10,000 hours meme (if it is that, it seems more of an observation to me) is not to be taken literal. If you take it literal, then yes, it is nonsense, it is not that until the 9999th hour you are going to be bad at something and then su

The fact that they start with offering you money weakens their case considerably. That said, get yourself a really good lawyer if you want to hold on to it and you think you have a strong enough case, be prepared to pay them a lot of money.

Only in the US will you find people that go to prison for arranging better education for their children. Utterly ridiculous. The best way to ensure that people do not do stuff like this is to make sure that all schools are held to the same

You use a lot of expensive words, zealotry, religion and so on. I'd suggest a bit more moderation lest you come across as a zealot yourself.

This is true, but a live one in the hand may be worth more than $500K in the bank. It all depends on your own estimation of the probability of eventual success, and your ability to accurately make that estimation in the first place.

God forbid that one day they mess up the 'caught you at the last moment' bit and one of these succeeds. I wonder how the FBI will respond then. The FBI should concentrate on real issues, rather than to attempt to fabricate them. I understan
