Re: power supply voltage

i think i will not procede with the original power supply, because of this label.
maybe it's more safe to use a modern pc p.s., that can deliver more or less all of the needed voltage.

btw: there is another power supply, a traditional one, that convert the +24v in a +12 and -12, not sure about why ...

I think that is a switching, because there isn't a huge voltage transformer, fuse are for 240vac also.

However, the 6502 assembler version wasn't the original original-- it was as FORTHers call, 'metacompiled'-- it used another FORTH system to bootstrap it, and the source-code for that has recently been rediscovered and placed online.
