This is interesting, Gabe! I agree that keeping it in EXTRAS makes sense. IMO, since we probably don't need code review on it, a github repo or something similar would probably be best. We should link to it on the website, though! Cheers, Jason On Mon, May 11, 2020 at 12:03 AM Gabe Black via

It isn't it's own ISA for a few reasons, but basically the CPU is a regular device model. It's running the kernal (they spell it with an a) ROM, and the basic ROM. I've mostly implemented the board logic and have started on the graphics, but then there's audio, interface devices, and then a

So this adds a new ISA is that correct? I say add it to the main tree, it could serve as a good small ISA example. Is it running ROMs fine? Is the simulation fast enough for interactive play? Wiki says it run at 1MHz so its just about what Atomic does, so I'm guessing it could.
