I played a bit and I found a bug where some extra lines appear on the 
screen.  It doesn't happen very often so it may be a bit tricky to track 
down, but I did manage to get a screen shot of it.  I was playing game 
#10.  It seems to only happen in the middle of the screen.

One possibility if you're using a symmetrical playfield is that your middle 
playfield write is off by one cycle.  Looks like you might be doing 
something that sometimes takes a cycle more than expected, like indexing 
across a page boundary.  It showed up on both the real Atari via Cuttle 
Cart and PCAEWin.
