MOnSter 6502 - Microprocessor in Discrete Components

This is a ridiculous project...

I had seen their prior work on the 555 and 741 ICs, even considered picking one up.

But they've taken that same idea much farther now... Very cool, and I don't think I saw it on the forum yet, so thought I'd share.

While it's not gonna work on a proper machine like the C64 I wonder how it would behave on the smaller and slower homebrew designs.
You got your switches. You got your blinkenlites on the front panel, then you got the CPU itself above that with even MORE blinkenlites.

There are companion boards that he hasn't mentioned with a socketed 6502, ram a POKEY and Atari 800 keyboard and a TI graphics chip that runs Apple II integer BASIC
and there is a 40 pin header on the MOnSter board as well as pads.
