There are always some seriously impressive hardware projects that make you wonder why the hell someone didn't come up with the idea before. It's a similar story with Miroslav Němeček and what he has christened the ATX-80.
The machine borrows from the ZX-80, but uses an ATmega8 processor as its heart. The thing is not an emulator, but is programmed in AVR Assembly. But it comes with a BASIC implementation and can be connected directly to a VGA monitor or a PAL / NTSC TV set.
Small, fast and kind of cute. Kinda like a ZX-80, but better. It also comes with a whole bunch of demo programs and after assembly of the hardware you get right into it.
A perfect tinkering project for the Christmas season. Thanks Miroslav!
