I would like to know if this has any negative side effects. I want to 
increase the speed of a game, so I put this at the beginning of the 
code:
 LD A,$00
 out (4),a

  which will put the calc interrupt speed to it's fastest.

Then I put this at the end:
 LD A,%00000110
 out (4),a
  
   which will put the calc interupt speed to normal.

 Basically, using "TURBO" mode only within the program. I can't think of 
a reason why this would be bad. Dines? Or anyone else know? I know this 
would be really beneficial in Mega Man 82.
