 I'm working on some general-purpose assembly audio code, and read awhile
back that the primary audio frequency (1/3579545) is different for PAL
systems.  (I should have realized this, but it never occurred to me.)
 
 Does anyone have any idea how I can:
  (1) Find out whether my code is running on a PAL system or not.
  (2) Find the audio constant for PAL systems.
 
 Ideas, anyone?
