Apple I - Wikipedia

There have been three eras of general computing… the fourth remains to be written. A highly-compressed overview of the history of general computing The first era of general computing was the mainframe era and it was centralised. The second, the personal computing (PC 1.0) era, was decentralised. The third is the Web era (let’s call it Mainframe 2.0). And it is, once again, centralised. Today, we find ourselves at the end of the Mainframe 2.

Two years ago in 2014 I put together a half complete barely functioning emulator for the Apple 1. I called this project Emulated Woz Machine, an ode to the brilliant Steve Wozniak. I found some new energy to continue working on this project. To kick it off I wrote a small patch and also started filing issues for things that need to happen to turn this project into something bigger than just a Christmas break hack.

Things are moving fast now. Monochrome Hi-Res support. The horizontal line in the Frogger screen is probably a typo in the table that I have to list the base addresses of lines of the HGR pages. This is how I remember the Apple ][+ - everything in monochrome. Except that we had a Monitor ///, which was green. So I’ll have to make some options for monochrome color selection I think.

Right, the topic is still the Commodore 64. This time I want to get more technical and explain how to actually program some things. But first I would like to paint a picture of C64 programming in g…

Feeling inspired after seeing some electronic business cards creations, I tried a few years ago to make mini variant of my own. It’s a neat form factor to experiment and demo some ideas. Built around an ATtiny85 microcontroller, this was my first PCB design. The board is a sort-of puzzle, incorporating elements from different interests like (retro)computing, electronics and music.

I've been learning tools for thought and intelligence amplification/augmentation recently. After researching a bit more, I found myself frequently going back to…

What an honor to meet the Silicon Valley icon who has shaped the computing industry in the early days with his design of Apple's first line of products the Apple I and II, and his influence on the Mac

Jason and Myke tell the story of Apple's origin. It emerged from the unique environment of the Santa Clara valley suburbs of the '70s thanks to the particular genius of its two co-founders and some surprising help they got along the way.

The graph represents the Apple cash reserve by quarter, from fiscal Q1 1995 to Q3 2021. Apple's cash pile declined to $193.64 billion in June 2021
