Implement a basic ROM that can be replaced with a real A2 ROM image.

I'd love to see a cleanroom Apple ][ clone ROM.

:-) The actual bits of ROM that aren't Applesoft aren't really that
difficult to implement. Perhaps somebody would care to contact
Microsoft and ask them to release the source of Applesoft to the public
domain ?

That's the real trick. Though I suppose we could try to clone INTBASIC instead. Smaller and simpler.

The rest of the ROM...I implemented a high-level emulation of a lot of it that's far from complete (PR# and IN# are broken, monitor is incomplete, line input and some other smaller stuff is braindead) but it could be a starting point.
