If the inputs are good and there's no good output, this is a good
candidate.  It definitely has a lot to do with selecting the right
data at the right time.

I haven't fiddled with those ROM images.  I just grabbed them from
zimmers.net.  Not much code there - just a couple hundred bytes and,
of course, the vector addresses at the top.  I should disassemble them
to see what they are really doing.

Does anyone know where they came from?  I see upload dates from 2015.
