MOS is a company owned by C=, and makes the special chips. Isn't the company called "MOSTEK", or am I confused? Maker of the 6502 8-bit microprocessor from the good old days, right?

No, MOSTEK was a completly different and unrelated company. They were later bought out by Thomson and are now part of SGS-Thomson. The were better known for 4K DRAM, SRAM and as a second source for an assortment microprocessors, including the 68000. MOS Technology is best known for the 6502 family of processors and peripherals, and eventually became part of Commodore. During the game console / cartridge era it was one of the largest ROM producers, but since the C64 days activities are largely confined to making Commodore proprietary chips, while Rockwell is the largest vendor of 6500 derivatives. -- George Robbins - now working for, uucp: {uunet|pyramid|rutgers}!cbmvax!grr but no way officially representing: domain: grr@cbmvax.commodore.com Commodore, Engineering Department phone: 215-431-9349 (only by moonlite)
