A83: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Where is...
Same thing. There is a lot of ram dedicated to this apd feature though,
enough to store the entire screen (and the 2 byte timer). I guess this is to
make it so the calculator doesn't have to do much calculation to redraw the
screen when you turn it back on again which very well could make it worth
the 768 bytes.
