Something does seem to be amiss in the sound code all of a sudden. I noticed it
the other day when trying Arcadians (in OS X) - that startup tune seems to
randomly skip notes. So I do need to reopen the sound code and see if I haven't
done something stupid.

That's definitely not a bug I had any idea of until now. I'll look into it.

Hmmm, sounds like I have something wrong with the ROM paging, as I think 'Bad
ROM' is displayed when the OS can't find a language ROM to start up with. Since
BASIC is always there it shouldn't ever happen...

I'll open a formal bugs list and add those to it straight away! I think right
now it is more important to get what is already in the emulator working
flawlessly (or as close to flawlessly as possible, given that I've still never
been able to determine Electron interrupt timings versus horizontal and vertical
sync timings with absolute certainty) than to add new features, so bug fixing is
the top priority.
