The 'KIM-1/6502 User Notes' were the birthplace of 'The First Book of KIM', issues 1 to 13 came to me as a photocopy of the originals, issues 14 to 17 were scanned by the author , I tried to stay as close as possible to my sources and give you the look and 'feel'.
This time it was impossible to make a HTML version, as you go through the document you'll see why.
On this web site only issue 8 to 13 are active, other issues can be found at the new site here
Enjoy this piece of history.
