The Commodore SuperPET does indeed use a 6502, but it also uses a 6809. The architecture of the SuperPET is really quite interesting (for the time it was built). If you set a switch on the side one way, you get a standard Commodore 8032. If you set the switch the other way, you get a 6809 machine with its own set of roms and an additional 64K of bank switched memory. The SuperPET comes with BASIC, Fortran, Pascal, Cobol, APL, and a 6809 assembler development system. If anyone is interested in picking up one of these, I've got an old one sitting around, complete with 2031 disk drive and all of the software. -- Morgan Jones mwjones@lotus.uwaterloo.ca "BMATH - 3 months and counting ..."
