It'll work with a 6800, you just have to change the ROM. No PSU changes required. Thanks, Jonathan ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐ Original Message ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐ On Tuesday, October 26th, 2021 at 21:51, Bill Degnan <billdegnan@gmail.com> wrote:
Did you say a 6800 also works, but you had to adapt the power, or did I misread an earlier message? Bill

OK, I'm going to try and make Festivus as long as nothing comes up. And of course anyone else with a 6501 is welcome to test, too!
Thanks, Jonathan

Who knows -- some have shown up on eBay, but as far as I know there's been no effort to catalog the extant 6501s.
I can bring the OSI 400 board by sometime if the museum would like to test their 6501, perhaps do a video about it or something.
If you come up for Festivus, then we can do it at that time. Otherwise, just let us know when you come make a trip up to the museum.
Thanks, Jonathan

This feels like a historic moment. How many of these even exist any more?

We built up an Ohio Scientific 400 board for a Motorola 6800, and then plugged in a MOS 6501 and got it running!
Thanks, Jonathan
