What "other ones"? 6502/6522/6526 were used in other designs & enough of
them were sold that other fabs second sourced them. I just don't think
we know what was used outside of our little corner of the market.

I had a similar discussion about Argonaut Games chips the other day with
someone, their ARC CPU ships in over 1.5 billion products per year.
