It needs more memory. Also, how do you know wheter to move the program pointer forward or backwards? --Zzo38 18:53, 7 Jul 2006 (UTC)


 * Memory? OK then, I should add an extra segment on the I/O ports. That would probably be set to I/O port 1. Program counter? It's a signed byte. Ihe format for a signed byte goes like this: If the most significant bit (msb) is set, then that number is negative, so to move backwards, you need to XOR it by FFh (255d) and then subtract the PC by that. --Thematrixeatsyou the HighFive guru, 07:20, 8 Jul 2006 (UTC)


 * Infinite memory would be nice :-) --Ihope127 18:31, 8 Jul 2006 (UTC)


 * Yah. --Thematrixeatsyou 08:37, 9 Jul 2006 (UTC)


 * How about a page flipper, sort of a tape device like on some old HPs. Say "0" reads next page, "1" skips next page, "2" skips back one page, "3" skips back one page and writes (eg writes the last page you read). Others might include 'rewind', 'next tape' and 'prev tape' Rdebath (talk) 13:43, 25 August 2013 (UTC)
