	Hahahaha!  If I could code this thing in fifteen minutes I would not be a 
washed-up nerd with an inferiority complex!  I'm sure I can cut the time down 
to ten minutes.. 8-)

	Thanks-  It's a lot harder than I thought it would be.  The program would 
probably run a lot faster if I did not have some extras like register display 
and I/O signals displayed.  I still have keyboard and sound to do for the 
basic (pun intended) emulation.  Then, I have to comment it...  8-|  After 
that come disks, RS232, etc.

	On a serious note, is there a version of the LCD Numbers control that 
displays hexadecimal and a negative-sign?  That would be SO much cooler than 
just using text for the register displays!
