I suppose that's true, Hans, BUT, in1982, there
were few other processors
than the 6502 and Z-80 in popular use, with the exception of the 8080A and
the 8085, of course. The majority of home computers, though, used one of
these two, at that time. Several years later, we found the 6510 and 6809 in
commercially interesting applications, but not for as long a period as the
Z-80 and 6502. These two had a life of nearly ten years before the IBM-PC
and its clones wrenched the home computer market from their grasp.
in 1982, the 9900 was also big and beasts like SC/MP where still on
the run (and 680xx, 808x and 160xx comming up), but you're right if
you want to pich the two mayor player in the SOHO market.
But still, a general measurement includes them.
Gruss
H.
