What about differences between > 8501(7501) and 8502 and 8500? Between 6526 and 8521 we are not sure, yet. I can't even remember which way round they are installed - one for the keyboard and the other for the user port. This will probably get investigated in due course. 8520 has clear differences in the software model (no TOD clock) and does not concern us here. 8500, 8501 and 8502 have pinout and software model differences, so again it is not difficult to detect them, although since each is used in a very different type of Commodore machine you wouldn't need to detect them. 7501 vs 8501 is more interesting. This case is like 6510 vs 8500 except that the two are fabricated in more similar technologies; HMOS-I and HMOS-II. I am not aware of HMOS-I machines outside of America, so our US friends will have to help us out on this matter. Who has a 7501 machine?
