Heh, I got fooled by that one once... =P  I borrowed my friend's 86 and was
trying out all the available games, and I came across Yugi 2. I was like "Hmm,
I wonder what this could be, the name doesnt say much, and there's no text
file... Well, what the hell, I'll try it out..."  and that completely sucked
that I couldn't delete my memory... :\   Hmm, maybe it was just the interrupt
being enabled, but for some reason, taking out every battery including the
backup did Nothing to get rid of that program. =P  It took like a day with
1,000,000 keypresses of the [ON] key with the batteries out, to recover my
calc. =P  Good one, Dux... ;)
