Altair32 update

Hello, all:

        For those interested, I hit a major milestone this evening. After a
momentary flash of brillance (which come too few and far between I'm afraid
:-)) I made some minor tweaks to the code relating to diskette images. Then,
I loaded up an image of CP/M 2.2 for the Altair and fired it up. Well, don't
you know it works! I got CP/M to boot on the emulator!!! I now have to try
Altair Disk BASIC and Altair DOS.

        It's dog slow and for some reason I can see CP/M console output but it
doesn't appear to receive console input. So, I'm stuck at the "A>" prompt. I
guess it's time to slow the front panel updating again or try to optimize
the processor code.

        I feel a 2.1 release coming...
