This is not needed because of designing with the old chip, but to know, if a lately discovered bug in the system might be a consequence of using an older revision of the chip (been there).
Some will be very tempted to do so. http://www.8052.com/forum/read.phtml?id=113270 I think that if I REALLY scrounge around in boxes etc I might find a HMOS '51 and a 8255, it would be totally absolutely crazy to use them. I always wonder why someone want to save $1 for a decoder and use a 8255 "on hand" instead, then pay $10 for the aspirin needed to handle the use of the 8255 that saved $1. A good example of so called "savings" is that since an Atmel 'S' type cost $1 less than a Rx2 type many spend $20 building a programmer for the 'S' which would not be needed if they used a Rx2.
