Neo6502 Board

Surprised this has not been posted yet, but there is a new SBC that has a real 6502 and can run Apple II software.

It seems to have some kind of bus connector also, maybe possible for a breakout box with real Apple II cards?

Someone already posted about

Someone already posted about it about a year ago, and we had a brief discussion here:

Oh, I'm surprised that was also you posting the link back then. Advertising your own project/product then? :)

It is just another somewhat

It is just another somewhat partial emulator (out of gazillion out there) on an exotic PCB, which idea is to profit from the hardware. Boring.

Heh, I don’t think that is the case. Olimex is a reputable company based in Plovdiv, Bulgaria with about 40 employees and multi-million dollar yearly revenue. Whenever they talk about their products, they always identify themselves properly.

so cynical

well, except that the board is $32. A case with a touch LCD display and usb board is $64, and they're available on Mouser and Digikey.  Olimex is not making big bucks, and it's all open source, code and everything's available on Github.  https://github.com/OLIMEX/Neo6502

I mean, compared to other products "advertised" here, including original Apple hardware...  I'll take my chances and spend $32.  PS I don't think I've posted more than one or two posts in the last year, maybe not five in the past five.  If you want to take that as evidence of shilling, I guess I can't stop you.

It is a mere ad of an ugly

Your messages are a mere ad of a dull product no matter how you obfuscate it.
