   I wasn't expecting to find clean OOP modeling in an #Amiga emulator:
   https://github.com/dirkwhoffmann/vAmiga/blob/master/Emulator/Amiga.h#L38

   The instance variables map 1-to-1 with the custom chips present on the Amiga motherboard.

   But it might get messier once they add support for Amiga models with different chipsets...

     @penguin42 lol, is the example of the address line to the keyboard controller from an actual PC motherboard?

     @codewiz Yeh I've seen that in a few emulators -- the objects are tangible; they actually correspond to chips you can pick up, and then to subcomponents in those devices. [Until you find something crazy that is, like the x86 running one of it's address lines to the keyboard controller]
