There might be issues with "The Glove". I know I couldn't load it from
a PC sound card because it expected to be able to stop the cassette and
start it at will, but of course there was no "remote" pause connection
to the PC. Maybe that's a different issue -- it could still be using
the ROM's cassette routines.
