I always preferred Tom Sawyer... 

I have a disk image somewhere of something that plays Iron Man in a
terribly distorted fashion, maybe the same program...

Originally I was interested in just getting sound to travel from the
input jack to the speaker, but apparently my lack of assembly skills
are proving themselves, as I can only get the speaker to click once.

On a related matter: is it possible to load and save to tape under
Prodos... I've tried it in DOS 3.3 (using my mac as a tape recorder)
and it seems to work fine, albeit very slowly... using the SAVE and
LOAD commands from Prodos just gives me SYNTAX ERROR -- is the pro-
cedure different?
