| The BBC Lives on! |
The BBC still has potential. Almost all the BBC games had the aweful graphics and terrible sound. However, They had amazing game play. Beyond the games, it was on these computers that I learnt to program and so I have fond memories of these machiens. With the advent of graphical operating systems and GUIs, people have the computer hidden from them. The result is that they are often scared of it or just don't understand it. | ||||||||||||||||

I am trying to learn as much about the internal workings of the Master as possible with a view to writing a Master emulator. I would greatly appreciate any advice on this subject. I have the master manual, and advanced manauls Books 1 and 2. If anybody has technical specs on the CPU, or memory I would greatly appreciate an e-mail from you. I have now found the master circuit diagrams, thery were at the BBC documentation project. | Call for help! | ||||||||||||||||

The reason that I want this electronics infomation is that I have decided to take a slightly diffrent approach, other people have tryied to emulate the commands this enevitably means that people have problems emulating some features of the BBC. Often the more weird and wonderfull graphical manipulation techniques. My idea is to actually simulate the electronics of the computer in a mathmatical model. I am yet to decide wheater this is a feasible (or possible!) solution. More likely will be a logical simulation of the logic components. | |||||||||||||||||
