Sorry.  If you look, there is a call to Int 10h, AL=1130h.  Among other things,
this returns the maximum row number of the current video mode (# rows - 1).
This works only on an extended BIOS, though.  If you have an old BIOS, the
initialization routine senses this and assumes 25 lines.

This is a fact.  Please don't argue.
