	When you are talking about code that size and in ROM things surely
can take along time. Murphy would surely have it that after making
X-million new ROM's someone would find a bug that the testing did not
show up [ after all the testing can be just as complex as the code
and _it_ can have bugs that hide bugs.... ]. If I were those making
a choice on a release for new ROM's I wouldn't be getting much sleep.
Whatever, hopefully most of the major routines will keep the feature
of ram jump vectors so they can be patched later if need be...

	As for expanding to 4 Meg as has been mentioned this has already been 
done by a few firms...
