Just a note: the preferred group term for the 6502 and its descendants is "65x". 



That would not only cover the MOS designs (6502, 65C02, 65816, etc) but the variants made for Commodore (6510, 8502), Atari (6507), and NES (Ricoh 2A03 - which adds sound and game controller polling, but removed the BCD mode).



So like we say "x86" to mean everything from the 8088 to the Intel Core i12, "65x" means "everything with a 6502 instruction set."



Though it seems pretty clear that we are going to be in the 65xx subset, unless a we get a 3rd party 65c816 daughterboard.

WDC, who, you know, actually makes the chips, uses "65xx"
