The enhancement kit does make some software obsolete, though.  Has anyone
figured out how to make Star Thief run on an enhanced //e?  A while back
I save copies of the unenhanced //e ROM in an attempt to load them into
bank switched memory and fake the presence of an older //e.  Sadly the
system didn't reset as I expected (not CTRL-OA-RESET) and it would just
lock up.  Any ideas?
