This is also my first project with a non-trivial scope. +My Apple I emulator has a handful of specific goals that will demonstrate its functionality. + +1. Correctly interpret MOS 6502 machine code. +2. Create a 'terminal emulator' that mimics the Signetics 2513 terminal which the Apple I came with. +3. Run a system monitor operating system. +4. Create a virtual cassette interface card which will read in binary files. +5. Run a BASIC program on Wozniak's BASIC interpreter, + +Once I have achieved those particular goals related to pure functionality, then I may decide to expand the emulator with other features such as: + +1. Simulating the actual speed of the computer. +2. Expandable memory. +3. An option to emulate the Apple I with either a MOS 6502 or a Motorola 6800. +4. Retro graphical effects + +I may not hit all or even any of those later goals, that is a decision I will make once I have completed the project. |
