Btw, this is not exactly true. 65CE02 - AFAIK - was a real product, even
used in some kind of Amiga hardware. C65 uses 4510 (or so) which is actually
a microcontroller (many stuffs are integrated on it), but it's true anyway
that 4510's "CPU core" is 65CE02, only one extra opcode was added MAP (for
MMU functionality), though I am not sure what it did on a 65CE02. I don't
know is 4510 was ever released as a chip other than in C65 prototypes.

Ok, I've just found on wikipedia:

"A product that used the 65CE02 was the Commodore A2232 serial port card for
the Amiga."

I would be curious if it was really a mass product, so 65CE02 (not 4510) was
a "mass-producted" chip ...

Not, if you want to write a C65 emulator and you want to code for it :)

But of course I understand that this kind of need is very specific to only
some people ...
