Disney Music releases John Williams’ soundtrack from Star Wars: The Last Jedi.
The ninth Star Wars movie, Star Wars: The Last Jedi, premieres. Written and directed by Rian Johnson, The Last Jedi stars Daisy Ridley, John Boyega, Adam Driver and Oscar Isaac, alongside original trilogy stars Carrie Fisher and Mark Hamill. Laura Dern, Kelly Marie Tran, and Benicio Del Toro make their first appearances as new characters.

This is the last Star Wars film to feature new scenes with the late Carrie Fisher as Leia.
The chief designer of the 6502 microprocessor (a device credited with breaking Intel’s near-monopoly on the market and kick-starting the personal computer revolution), Chuck Peddle dies at the age of 82. Having already gained experience as part of the team that developed Motorola’s 6800 chip, Peddle realized that there was a need for a cheaper alternative. (At over $300 upon its introduction in 1973, the 6800 was still prohibitively expensive.) Motorola showed no interested in developing an inexpensive alternative, so Peddle defected to rival chip maker MOS, where he brought the 6502 chip to market. Within a few years of its introduction, the 6502 was already the heart of the Apple II, the earliest Atari home computers, the Commodore VIC-20, and the BBC Micro. Variants of the 6500 processor family powered the Commodore 64, the Atari VCS, and the Nintendo Entertainment System, among countless others. He was often credited as the father of the personal computer.
