Hey!....you didn't step on my toes! No problem. Don't worry
about it. Like I said, I concur with you.  However, I will say, I
had a lot of work thrown my way writing software for the
8080/8085/8086, and that was in assembler, and it *was* a
hard-way...hard-knocks way to go. I bought the family-size
*jug* of Bayer aspirin for these projects  :)

Thanks, --Steve
