Learn how to code on one of the most retro systems available: the Atari 2600 Video Computer System.
If you bring in a notebook running Linux, Windows or Mac OS X, you'll get the tools, documentation and code templates to start your very own demo. See what can be done with an addressable space of 4K of ROM, and 128 bytes(!) of RAM!
A live system is available so you can run your on code on the real thing, not just in an emulator.
On days 1 and 2 at 15:00 there will be a short introduction on what to deal with, if you decide to code for the 2600.
