Perfect! THank you thank you thank you....

For those interested, I'm trying to expand the code execution address
size/range of Asteroids Deluxe from 8K to 40K, and I need this part to
allow me to tweak the chip select on a 27512 when the address range is
6000-ffff. Fortunately there's an A15 jumper pad on the board already so I
can enable that to do the A15 decode (whew!), so 8000-ffff accesses
deselect everything else in the system.

The next thing is to hook up something so I can page in vector ROMs... I'm
thinking about using some sort of 8 bit latch or something... Not sure
yet. I'll have to study the schems.

Anyone know of a C compiler for the 6502. ;-)
