In a previous post you have written:

"..the 65 family is WDC's entire business. Their business does not
seem to be declining either, since they're saying that now at over
200,000,000 65c02 cores per year going into products, it's more
than at any previous time in history."

I'm curious where the 200,000,000 figure comes from.
ie is this something from their web site or something a sales rep.
told you, something you read in the Wall Street Journal, etc ?

It was on WDC's website a couple of months ago, but they've been making changes in the website quite often and now it doesn't seem to be there right now.

A related statement I just now got from the website is "Chances are high that you own or use an appliance, automobile, toy, cell phone or home entertainment device controlled by a WDC microprocessor!"

When many people think of 6502 they think of the Apple II of two decades ago, instead of all the embedded computers they don't even realize they own today.
