Fair enough. Just keep in mind that freely available 6502 cores
already exist, and faster processors are likely to only be available
via faster programmable logic platforms; there is little reason to
build faster 'hard' 6502's when a 100Mhz part is doable on hobbyist
accessible FPGA gear.

Of course :-) And if you make such a thing I'll be buying one.
