Folks
please remember that there are 4000 other people reading these
messages, and many of them are already becoming overloaded with the
traffic levels we've been seeing.
a resume fight isn't going to help this situation at all. and will
probably end up with more users joining johnny in the moderation queue.

During my fellowship I wrote a real-time data acquisition app in
6502 assembler that used a custom circuit board that served as a
Schmidt trigger to clean up a square wave from the cardiotachometer
we used.
While that may sound impressive to some, this is almost identical to
a project I was given as an assignment as a first-year
undergraduate. Schmidt triggers are uncomplicated circuits (you can
get four of them in a 4093 chip anyway).
Those of use who are slightly too young to have grown up with
minicomputers and cut our teeth instead on first-gen home micros,
ate, slept and breathed 6502 assembler, as it was the only option
for getting any performance out of those machines. I also home-
brewed a digital oscilloscope from a KIM-1 so real-time data
acquisition with a 6502? Been there, done that. Have to admit it
wasn't very good as the 1MHz processor speed did somewhat limit its
bandwidth... but it worked.
