yes it is....but one thing you have to remeber the xl's and xe's don't have a
6502 they have a 6502C which is different and therefore you can only put a 65C02
in a 800 (which i did about two years ago....) and theoretically you can also 
put a 65C802 in...but i havn't been able to get it to work (it shows up with 
the blue screen but doesn't poll for the drive....i was gonna re assem the OS
(friend has it ) and put in my own roms but never got around to it...(16 bit
math routines....aahhhh the dreams of the young...)
