1. The docs all show VSYNC as the top of the frame (3 lines) and then 37
lines for VBLANK. So isnt the scanline counter reset when VSYNC is written
to, not when it is turned off? Doing it as you suggest would be 3 lines
too late, yes?
2. What is the beam counter actually used for? Only for reference? If I
understand it, RSYNC controls this, but RSYNC seems hardly ever used :/
