Thanks, I'm honored, and no, I won't pay the cleaning.

> Some early (not used) OpCodes for the (never realeased) Z8T:

> JGL - Jump and Get Lost
> BFN - Branch for No Reason
> SIT - Shift if Tuesday
> RUB - Rotate Until Barf

My all time favorite

> SFR - Set Flags at Random
> NMO - Non Maskable Overrun
> DAC - Divide and Conquer
> LMB - Logical Maybe

Didn't know that one.

> EBS - Emit Burning Smell
> LCM - Loop Clear all Memory

> and one of my all-time favorites

> POF - Power On Fail

Quite a good mnemonic, since it even sounds like what id does..
