You could do small problems, like the ones in books about
learning to use Spice.  Sometimes for real problems one only
needs to run Spice on a small part.

I haven't looked to see how big it is, though.
You might want more than 64K of (bank switched) RAM to
use it.

...and a programming language that supports FP in a bank-
switched environment.  ;-(
