   I'm disappointed to hear that you can't change the ROM reset vector in
the IIc.  It can be a useful cracking tool in the II+: I modified my RAM
card so I can flip a switch & write-protect it.  So I load in the monitor,
change the reset vector to do what I want it to, flip the switch, & boot
the protected program.  Then I (hopefully) reset into the monitor.
   So:  Can people with manuals or who actually try this tell us on which
IIs reset pulls in the old ROMs?  (Actually, this is hard to believe - I
think in the II+, the 6502 Reset line is hard-wired to put the contents
of FFFE and FFFF in the program counter.)
