Nevermind.  I figured it out.  The D0 and D8 ROMs weren't part of the
original II.  The ROM that was in the D0 socket was an F8 ROM for an early
II+ (part number 341-0016-00).  The later II+ used 341-0020-00 for the F8.
Instead of pressing ctrl-C, I did E000G and it works fine in BASIC now.
Cool.  Original II ROM's running on a IIe!
