Apparently the so called "6502" used in the Atari's is a custom modified
chip, hence its not using the industry type JDEC number.  From Mike at Xerox
comes the following:

     Atari 6502c #C014806                   standard 6502

     pin no.    function                    pin no.     function
     36         READ/WRITE                  36          N.C.
     35         /HALT                       35          N.C.
     34         N.C.                        34          READ/WRITE

Therefore one could bend up pins 34 and 36 and do a wire connection to swap
these two pins, but that would still leave you without a /HALT command.
(Presumably the halt command is necessary.)  I do not know if the 6502c
chip used by Atari is identical between the original 400/800, the intermediate
XL series and the current XE series.  Presumably there have been some improve-
ments but I do not think that they have gone to CMOS.  Any comments from
Atari?   Does anyone know if the 65802 chip has a halt function?  Possibly,
if it did, it could still be used with a 34/36 pin swap out.
