A VIC-20 music composition contest using VIC Tracker?  Excellent, I've gotta try to do this...
Here's a nice website for the KIM-1, the first 6502 cpu based computer.
Want to know more about the first ever CPU?  Check out the Intel 4004 page!
Or, you could step forward a couple of years, and learn more about the Z80 from this webpage.
Don't have an Altair?  Join the club!  But you can have an Altair Simulator, a virtual Altair, loaded to the gills, with great software too!
