I tried to explain that just last year I wrote some 8080 asm for a terminal
I've got that has 2k of rom and 400h bytes of ram.
On person asked me if I used C, C++ or visual basic to program it. *AUGH*
Oh yeah, explaining how my debug box had 2 hex displays, actual switches
for each bit (for setting registers) and 4 hex rotary switches for the
address was amusing... "but where is the source code?"
