Ok, ok, Ataris don't have 6502s TECHNICALLY, but they use the instruction
set compatible 6507. It's got a smaller package (less addressing pins),
and I think maybe a little bit of static ram. I think it could only 
address 8k or so (and you thought 64k was small! Ha!)

I'm sorry I can't help you more, but I seemed to have missed the original
