You would still need those 2 weird matrices to execute any assembly at all,
so if you're talking about using ION's loader, then good. Only thing is
that ION's loader is slow as hell, but allows programs to be put on in any
order.
Little problem with using ION's loader: You can't just instantly relocate
(CrASH style) to prevent crashes with _Getkey.

Ah... good old h@ys. He got his ass kicked when he messed around on SGC's
boards, losing a couple free webspace accounts...
