AE's TransWarp //e does support the 65802 chip just fine. The 802, is pin
compatible with the C02 so only a uP swap was required.
As for for software support for an '802, I'm addicted to Merlin16 :) Merlin16
is several times faster then Merlin8.

n >> It's the 16 bit option AE advertised back then. The card apparently senses
