virtual retro computer project

[paul_nicholls]

A guy called Mattias Gustavsson has made his own virtual retro computer, with it's own set of retro-style computer 'limitations' and it's own ASM code!

How crazy is that! neat :)

I think source code is available too ;)

:o

Absolute crazy.
But in a way this may be easier then try to emulate real hardware.
Did he even write a video card emulation?

:D I actually meant 'crazy' in a good way haha!!

I might try out retrobox myself and have a bit of a play...hell if I get 'bored', I could even try making a simple high-level language that creates an assembly code text file for the assembler! ;)

But first...must...do...more...on...my...PGDAnual...en try...and...not...get...distracted... :D

cheers,
Paul
