What exactly is this program? Its a Virtual Machine, NOT a Emulator.. It interprets Atari 800 Assembly Language with a few extra instructions for modern computers NO you cannot run Atari 800 ROMS but if you get the assembly source than it can be interpreted…This is meant to help you learn how to write a interpreter/virtual machine as well as teach you the foundations of modern programming languages.http://forums.qj.net/showthread.php?t=35531

PSPSeq is a synthesis and sequencing application for the PSP. Release notes:

i’ve taken the basic synthesis environment i wrote for the ADSP-218x and have ported it to the PSP, adding on a rather ugly but functional interface. the zip file contains versions for firmware revisions 1.0 and 1.5. it should also work for firmware 2.0 but i don’t have access to this revision and have not yet been able to test it out. if you successfully get this to work with revision 2.0, please contact me at pspseq at dspmusic dot org.
