As a dev, I'm a tad displeased by the change for Bank Switching to ZP $00/$01.....
Not coherent with all the other system switches (mem location wise, I mean).
Taking 2 addresses on the tiny and already packed ZP.
Am I the only one ?
Not really, given that the ZP is NOT already packed ... at least, compared to the tiny amount of free User zero page space available to the C64, $02 to $7F is a big slice of zero page for assembly language programs even when called by Basic as SYS routines.
And it was heading toward having almost no User Port capabilities at all, while now it has more GPIO available than the C64 User Port had.
