The November 1975 issues of BYTE magazine has a seven
page article
comparing the Motorola 6800 to the upcoming MOS Technology MCS6501 and
MCS6502. The article was written by Daniel Fylstra based on a visit to MOS
Technology in August 1975, a month before the announcement at WESCON.
I have scanned it and placed a copy on my web site. This is a searchable
PDF file (1880 KB). It would be nice if someone with a 6500 focused web
site wants to host this file. I also have 300 dpi tiff files and a 8.5 MB
high resolution PDF file of this article

Here is an article from the Commodore site.
