    BACK IN 1976, MOS Technology produced a single-board computer - the KIM-1 - to help introduce their new 6502 microprocessor to engineers and computer hobbyists. It proved to be a great success, and the 6502 went on to power the best-known machines of the early Home Computer revolution - names like Apple, Commodore, Atari 8-bit and BBC Micro - not to mention the wildly popular Atari 2600 and Nintendo NES video game consoles.
    KIM UNO IS A MOS KIM-1 clone / emulation powered by an Atmega 328P microcontroller onboard an Arduino Pro Mini. The latest  firmware adds Apple I & COSMAC ELF support. Installed vintage software includes MicroChess, Wozmon and a 6502 Programmable Calculator - and you're free to add or remove as you see fit.
    FULL INFORMATION including User guides, construction manual, firmwares, BOM (Bill of Materials), etc. can be found on the project page at: https://obsolescence.wixsite.com/obsolescence/kim-uno-summary-c1uuh - On the left, click the "KIM Uno - Details" bar, then scroll down to the bottom of the new page.

    KIT INCLUDES ALL REQUIRED PARTS AS SHOWN IN THE SECOND PHOTO. THE ARDUINO PRO MINI BOARD IS PRE-PROGRAMMED WITH THE LATEST FIRMWARE. PHOTOS OF COMPLETED DEVICE ARE FOR DISPLAY PURPOSES ONLY. 3D PRINTED CASE NOT INCLUDED, SOURCE FILES ARE FREELY AVAILABLE.
    THIS LISTING IS FOR A DIY KIT  REQUIRING SOLDERING SKILLS AND SOME BASIC ELECTRONICS KNOWLEDGE - SKILL LEVEL IS SUITABLE FOR MOST BEGINNERS. I HIGHLY SUGGEST YOU READ THE ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS - ORDER OF ASSEMBLY IS CRITICAL.
    A couple of Frequently Asked Questions:
    Q: Did you create the KIM Uno? Is that your wesite?
    A: No! As much as I'd like to be able to take credit, the Uno was created & developed by Oscar Vermeulen, a vintage computer enthuiast residing in Switzerland. And while the Uno is a F/OSS project, I did obtain his permission before starting production - this is also why I only sell to the USA. Oscar has also created functional "mini" replicas of the DEC PDP-8 and PDP-11 machines, which are intermittently available from his website - they are quite excellent!
