I have such a beast in front of me now. It has a 65C02 (-3), 64K ROM (27512),
16K RAM (2 x 6264), a Zilog controller chip similar to the GS's (85c30, except
its a DIP), and a big fat gate custom gate array (PLCC). By no means is this
card simple. I was very fortunate to get the card, but I still lack the
software and cables.  I have to contact Mac Canada  :(
