Ok, terry I'll make you a deal.  Show me some processor that has virtual
memory constructs that are not ridiculous (like intels), and if you write
the code for real<->virtual hardware (i.e. console, disk, etc.)
I will code the virtual instruction set.  A motorola product would be
prefferred because getting detailed manuals from them is painless (and
usually free).
