Partial scan of The Best of Micro 3: AIM 65 SYM-1 KIM-1 part and General (6522).
Updates to KIM-1, AIM 65 and SYM-1 pages
With the help of users on the German Classic Computing forum I have added many manuals and magazines in German about those systems:
– AIM 65 PC100 manuals
– MICROMAG magazines
– KIM-1 manuals in German
I also added books on the 6502 in general and on the KIM-1, SYM-1 and AIM 65 to the Books section.
Reading old magazines is always fun, from the period 1976 to 198x magazines were filled with articles on the 6502, the KIM-1 and other SBC’s.
German, Dutch and English magazine articles extracted here.
Kilobaud, Byte, Dr Dobbs and of course the dedicated 6502 User Notes, MICRO Journal and Compute are valuable sources, but look at the many magazines on this page!

Data Handler, an early 6502 SBC
The Data Handler is a SBC (actually two boards!) built in 1975 by Western Data Systems Corporation.
One of the first computers based upon the then new 6502, as the KIM-1. Jolt, OSI 300.
Photos and blog about this SBC by Armin Zink, who owns a Data handler.
The following text and scans of the manual are by Armin Zink on his blog.

The KIM-1 Simulator is now at version 1.1.4. Not much news, just some small steps. Windows executable is updated, Linux versions require compiling sources.

Junior Computer II
Written by 2021 by Joerg Walke, visit his webiste for the most actual version!
The Junior Computer ][ is an expanded version of the original Junior Computer. To make it more useful, I’ve equipped it with 32KB RAM, 8KB ROM and an onboard RS232 serial interface for connecting a terminal or a printer. For the use with a terminal, I also wrote an extended monitor program thats included in the bigger ROM. The development of the Junior Computer ][ is still in progress, so some other features will find its way to the mainboard.On the picture above, you can see the actual rev. 2 board of the Junior Computer ][.The new revision 3 board has arrived!…all components assembled and soldered…and it works fine!

New SBC: SYM-1
I have acquired a SYM-1 Rev 1.1. Again a historical milestone back in my collection.
It works, so much more advanced software than a KIM-1, with more I/O and 4K memory.
No Basic or RAE ROMs alas.
See the Synertek SYM-1 pages for more info.
