6502 and its variants were used in many platforms, particularly video game systems and TV computers like the Apple II family, BBC Micro, Commodore Pet/VIC-20/64, Atari 400/800, Nintendo Entertainment System/Famicom, and TurboGrafx-16/PC-Engine. Introductory information about it tends to be oriented toward those platforms rather than the chip itself.

- urmish 8y agoThanks. I was reading and listening to Chuck Peddle's talks last hour about his work at Motorola and MOS. At the age of 81, he still gives talks. Very inspiring stuff.
