So I got to ask, what would you guys consider to be the better manual to learn assembly from for the 6502?

I'm thinking of trying my luck in using Assembly, seeing as I never really have done it and I think on a real CPU it would be a better way to learn it then say on the AVR's I've played around with for projects so far (as instructions need to be reprogrammed from your computer each time).

Garth,

Thank you,

Thank you I already found that one.

Picked up a 6502 based Computer training book from my college bookstore for a mere dollar. Which goes step by step. Its nice, but I forgot the actual brand of the book and the training board the college must have had to teach this.

Still will help me along. As it gives code examples and works assembly in a step by step fashion to get the trainer board working.

Finally brought my copy home, its LabVolt's TM17907 for the AS18344 Trainer. Based on the Copy Right Buck Engineering originally wrote it in 1982 and LabVolt picked it up in 1996.

Seems like a pretty standard trainer kit, with a Hex keypad and using 7-segment LED displays for data.

Deals with as you guessed assembly language and has a circuit diagram, and a removable "reference card". So pretty standard stuff.

Apparently they had more, picked up the remaining 7, for a buck a piece. So if anyone wants one I'll mail it to them for the cost of shipping it.

Dimitri,

I'd like a copy. Are you in the US?

No in Canada, however if you private message me your address I can get it out of you and I'll email you my paypal information for the shipping charges.

Dimitri

Anyone else want one to go out?
