[Dorset] Measuring the Entropy of the MOS 6502 CPU.

2011-03-02 Thread Ralph Corderoy

Hi,

Thought this would interest some on the list for a bit of light
lunchtime reading.  He's working out how many bits of information are
actually in the design of the 6502 CPU that powered home computers like
the BBC Model B.  Look away now if you don't want to know the result;
he gets to a shade under 7,000 bytes.

I hope to be there, but I'm not 100% sure.

If anyone has any unwanted ADSL USB modems that they'd like to get rid 
of (preferably known Linux compatible) I need up to two of them.  Small 
chance you'll end up taking them back home if I can't make it, obviously!


I used to have a box full of the things, but I think it's in storage.

I'd be interested in 'Copyright vs. Community' but don't know whether
time/circumstances will permit.

Yes, that would be very interesting indeed but Brighton is too difficult to
get to via public transport as it requires 2 trains and an extra hour
compared to London unfortunately.
