No, that was a fair point. This is a //e though.

Running the following bit of code:
10 FOR LOOP=49664 TO 49664+16
20 PRINT PEEK(LOOP)
30 NEXT

Gives (in decimal, obviously):
210
202
144
21
185
136
192
9
128
201
138
208
9
168
189
56
7

This is from a switch-on and CTRL-RESET - there's no DOS in memory at

I've also tried the CTRL-I trick to be safe - zilch.
