Please correct me if I am wrong but I am under the assumption that when
the processor boots it reads the eprom contents into processor space and
for an emulator to be real-time it would have to incorporate some kind
or processor reset line to be triggered before the processor would see
any of the changed data???  Again I have no working knowledge of these
things just my idea of how it works, please correct me if I am wrong,
either way count me in for any help I might be able to give...  Jason
