                           ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Motorola came up with the 6800.  Mos Technologies, later bought out
by Commodore, brought out the 650X. (One chip, I think the 6501, was
a plug replacement for the 6800.  I'm not sure if it was ever produced.)
The popular chip was the 6502.

As a side note, the Intel 4004 was followed by the 4040, an improved version.
