Thanks for the information.  It helps quite a bit.

However, my question about TALK ATN Turnaround does not seem to be 
addressed in the document, and I have some questions about pedantic use:

When I receive a 3F (and possibly 5f) as a command, should I ignore CLK 
until ATN goes high?
I am assuming that all devices will read any any bytes sent under ATN.  
Is this true?
Your document talks about devices 4 to 30 (04 to 1e).  I thought the bus 
could handle device 31.  No?
