   Hey, no problem! I suspect these variations were hardly used at all -   
   just the odd video game where someone had a Developers Kit for the CPU   
   and built the game around it. I've talked to a few game developers and   
   that was exactly why they used some odd-ball chips! Handy Developers   
   Kits and support from the kit's factory...
