	While all of the above is easily to write from scratch (with some
help from the Intel MCS-51 Users Manual), everything you want to know
(including source code examples) should be contained in the manual for
the Intel SDK-51 System Design Kit, manual P/N 121588-001.  There is a
separate source code listing for the monitor eprom, but I don't see it
in our binder with the SDK-51 documentation.

	While the SDK-51 uses an onboard display and keypad for monitor
functions, it would be a lot simpler to use an external serial device.
