I don't understand why you need to subtract the values from START in the
RESET vector. Shouldn't this work without that?

Also I think we should point out this works if your startup code is at the
beginning of ROM. Occasionally the display kernel starts at the beginning
of ROM to help avoid page boundary count errors.

This is nice when you're in a ROM crunch :-)

Take care,
Dennis
