Saturday

1:00 pm – Developing 8-bit Commodore programs using a modern IDE – Byron
Stout

While you can still program directly on the original hardware, it sure is nice
to have the conveniences of a software development environment running on a
modern PC. Let’s use CBM PRG Studio to write BASIC and ML programs for our
favorite 8-bit 
Commodore machines.

5:00 pm – In Search Of … The original wooden PET – Leonard Tramiel

The twisted story of the long and, ultimately, fruitful search for the
original Wooden Pet.

Sunday

2:00 pm 128Neo (Virtual – live) – Johan Grip

Johan Grip will talk about the Commodore 128 and the story of how repairing
the first computer he owned went a bit astray. Topics covered by the talk
includes PCB reverse engineering, silicon reverse engineering, tools and
techniques and other things 
learned during the process.

3:30 pm – Adventures in Emulation – Mike McGann

Do you enjoy using emulators to tinker around with computers of the past? Have
you ever wondered what it would take to develop an emulator yourself? In this
talk, Mike McGann will detail his adventures taken, from start to finish, in
building a 
rudimentary Commodore 64 (6502) and Pac-Man (Z80) emulator. Topics will
include memory layout, CPU instructions, text-based graphics, basic sound, and
plenty of implementation bloopers. A demonstration and Q&A session will follow
the talk. No quarters 
required.
