The original 6502 came from MOS Technology. The 65C02 and later chips came
from William Mensch and Western Design Center. Rockwell was merely another
source, as was GTE and CMD. Rockwell did add some instructions to their
65C02s, which were incompatible with all other 65C02s as well as all sub-
sequent 6500 series chips.
