In 1988, I Bought an 80 Megabyte Seagate Hard Drive

51. Sorry, Motorola didn't make the 6502, Rockwell did.

INTERESTING NOTE: the 6502, was a kit you could buy from the back of Byte Magazine. It was called the "AIM 65 SDK kit", and came with an AIM 65 motherboard with some expansion breadboard circuitry space on it & a 6502 processor. that's what Woz & Jobs had bought back in the day. What Wozniac did was add extra RAM to make it the APPLE 1. I met with & talked to them at the Xerox PARC HBMUG meetings, where I saw it running LISP & a draw program for the very first public viewing. The Motorola part of the first proto, was one of the many broken ATARI monitors Woz took home out of their dumpster, and repaired. I worked also at ATARI, and taught him how to fix them. And BTW, Jobs had not much to do with the technological parts of it. He was ALWAYS the front man. Woz was always the brain behind the whole thing... I have a few more interesting tidbit about that whole APPLE startup thing, and may have had something to do with it, also.....
