Hello! You're not the only one. One of the Japanese vendors I believe did that, since the R6502 is available as a core for gate arrays and then promptly created the whole business and added more instructions to the mix. It came up in a Hack A Day article not all that long ago, and got me surprised. The rumor that they were banned from certain US Government offices because of their ability to repeat what they've heard is sadly still around, even though the Feds have insisted it was not the case. ----- Gregg C Levine gregg.drwho8@gmail.com "This signature fought the Time Wars, time and again."
