This is great.  Thanks for posting.  I've been planning to write my own 6502
simulator when I can find the time.  I've got 6502 programming books coming
out of my ears.  ;-)

This is kind of cool. They took a 6502, X-rayed it, vectorized the
photographs, and then used polygon intersection to implement an emulator in
JavaScript. I haven't hears of anyone doing anything like that before. Made
me think of the FONC TCP/IP bootstrap in it's surprising straightforwardness
and unorthodoxy. 

Also, it seems to suggest a "polygonal language," which is interesting to
me. 

You can watch a color coded image of the processor doing it's thing and even
step through code, right in your browser. I really think this could be a fun
way to teach kids about microprocessors.

Thought I'd share, hopefully this is interesting to folks:)
