All of the work in this repository (exclusing this readme) is entirely the work 
of James Newman, designer and creator of the MegaProcessor
https://www.megaprocessor.com/

The MegaProcessor now lives at the Centre For Computing History in Cambridge.
https://www.computinghistory.org.uk/det/43063/The-Megaprocessor/
...They're always up for donations (cash and/or rare/vintage kit)

You can find Eighteen videos about the MegaProcessor by James here:

...Do the "like'n'subscribe" thing. 
...It might be meaningless to us, but it means the world to people like James :)

If you want to engage with the online community, they're on Facebook:

...But note: This is the work of one man (with a job). Please be patient.

Sadly James' site got vandalised, and much information was lost - even
arhive.org doesn't have it!
...People of earth: When you find a great web page, tell archive.org about it!

I contacted James and he kindly sent me all the files missing from the site.
...The contents of this repository!

During our chat he also advised me:
	The schematics were made in Eagle
	The transistors were all 2N7000
	Pullup resistors were 10k  (that was a mistake, made it all very slow)
	LED current limit 470
	LED was L-1334SRT
	...Which should cover 99% of the components

I then asked:
	"It strikes me to wonder why you have not placed these in a Github 
	repository ...Do I have these under NDA?"
To whit James replied:
	"They’re not on github because I don’t like git and don’t use it if I can 
	help it ... The files are not under NDA you can do what you like with them."
...So here they are. In their own repository. In their original format.
...With ALL credit going to James Newman.
