	MOS Technology 6502 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Western Design Center designed and produced the 65816 processor, a 16-bit successor to the 65C02 as well as a hybrid offshoot called the 65802 which was a 65816 with a 64 KB address space in a 65(C)02 pin-compatible package.
		Mitsubishi (now Renesas Technology) made a line of 16-bit microcontrollers with an architecture very similar to the 65816, though it was not 100% compatible.

	The MOS 6567/6569 video controller (VIC-II)
		The VIC has four interrupt sources: On reaching a certain raster line (raster interrupt), on the collision of two or more sprites, on the collision of sprites with graphics data and on a negative edge on the light pen input.

		For this, the VIC reads a sprite data pointer for each sprite in every raster line from the very last 8 bytes of the video matrix (p-access) that is used as the upper 8 bits of the address for sprite data accesses (s-accesses).

		MOS' claim to fame was their development and manufacturing of the wildly successful 6500 line of microprocessors which in addition to being used in nearly all Commodore computers and floppy drives, was also the driving force of all pre-1984 Apples.
		Unfortunately, when MOS arrived at the show they were told that, in an effort the keep the show 'high brow', exhibitors were not allowed to sell product at their booths.
		MOS was able to produce the chips at this low price because they increased their yield dramatically by reducing flaws in their chips 'masks' before starting production.

	Amiga - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		With its stereo sound, comparatively large colour palette and brisk performance (due largely to the custom chipset) - not to mention its multitasking abilities - the Amiga was considered by some to be superior to all competing systems, despite competitors offering faster CPUs, higher resolution monochrome graphics and (in some cases) built-in MIDI.
		The platform had three significant upgrades (not counting later non-Commodore technologies), with the Amiga 2000 in 1987, Amiga 3000 in 1990 and the Amiga 4000 in 1992.
		The rights to the Amiga platform were successively sold to Escom and later Gateway 2000, but Escom almost immediately went bankrupt itself (due to non-Amiga related problems) and Gateway merely vacillated over what to do with its new acquisition.

	The Pre-C64 History of Jack Tramiel and Commodore Computer
		In 1976, Tramiel reacts to the calculator fiasco by purchasing MOS Technologies, one of their former suppliers of semiconductors, Frontier (another manufacturer of ICs) and Micro Display Systems (as the name suggest, a supplier of LED Displays).
		Up to then, the only application for the 6502 had been the MOS KIM-1 single board computer, which, in a manner of speaking, is the ancestor of all Commodore computers up to 1985.
		One reason for this was the resemblance of VIC to the german word "fick" (6) (german for "fuck"), the other reason was, that VC was supposed to mean "Volkscomputer" (7), (literally: a computer for the people) creating a connection with the success of the original "Volkswagen" (also known as "Beetle" or "Käfer")
