Microsoft BASIC For 6502 Is Now Open Source
An overriding memory for those who used 8-bit machines back in the day was of using BASIC to program them. Without a disk-based operating system as we would know it today, these systems invariably booted into a BASIC interpreter. In the 1970s the foremost supplier of BASIC interpreters was Microsoft, whose BASIC could be found in Commodore and Apple products among many others. Now we can all legally join in the fun, because the software giant has made version 1.1 of Microsoft BASIC for the 6502 open source under an MIT licence.
This version comes from mid-1978, and supports the Commodore PET as well as the KIM-1 and early Apple models. It won’t be the same as the extended versions found in later home computers such as the Commodore 64, but it still provides plenty of opportunities for retrocomputer enthusiasts to experiment. It’s also not entirely new to the community, because it’s a version that has been doing the rounds unofficially for a long time, but now with any licensing worries cleared up. A neat touch can be found in the GitHub repository, with the dates on the files being 48 years ago.
We look forward to seeing what the community does with this new opportunity, and given that the 50-year-old 6502 is very much still with us we expect some real-hardware projects. Meanwhile this isn’t the first time Microsoft has surprised us with an old product.

The image is a black and white photograph of a man, likely from the early 20th century. He is wearing a dark suit with a three-piece design, including a vest, and a white shirt with a tie featuring a pattern of small dots. A white pocket square is neatly placed in the breast pocket of his suit jacket. He is also wearing a fedora hat with a dark band. The man has a mustache and is looking slightly to his right with a neutral expression. The background is a plain, textured wall, and the photograph has a vintage appearance with some signs of wear, such as creases and slight discoloration.

The image is a vintage black and white photograph of a man, likely from the early 20th century. The man is wearing a formal suit with a high-collared shirt and a tie, and a dark hat with a brim. He has a prominent mustache and is looking directly at the camera with a serious expression. The photograph is bordered with a white frame and has text at the bottom. The text reads "Georg Dill" in cursive script, followed by "München Blüthenstr. 21" in a more formal font, indicating the photographer's name and address in Munich. The photograph appears to be a professional portrait, typical of the era, with a plain background to focus attention on the subject.

The image depicts a stunning sunset over a body of water, likely a lake or a calm sea. The sky is filled with a vibrant array of colors, transitioning from deep purples and blues at the top to fiery oranges, reds, and yellows near the horizon. Wispy clouds are scattered across the sky, catching the warm hues of the setting sun and adding texture to the scene. The water reflects the colors of the sky, creating a mirror-like effect that enhances the overall beauty of the image. The silhouette of the distant landmass is visible on the horizon, providing a sense of scale and depth. The image captures the tranquil and awe-inspiring moment of a sunset, with the interplay of light and color creating a serene and picturesque landscape.

in reply to Dan Sloane • • •The image features a close-up of a glass of beer on a wooden table. The glass is tall and cylindrical, with the word "Hawkstone" printed on it in white. The beer is a light amber color with a frothy head, and there is condensation on the outside of the glass, indicating it is cold. To the left of the beer glass, there is a glass container with a floral pattern, possibly a water jug. The background is slightly blurred, showing a room with a person standing in the distance, suggesting a social setting. The lighting is warm, contributing to a cozy atmosphere.
