Just how slow is _vputs?  I'm guessing it is slow enough that if I were
to put a call to it in an interrupt routine, it would REALLY slow down
the calc.  Right?  How much faster would it be if I were to draw the
sprites of individual letters?  (I'm drawing 3 letters every interrupt)

So, going in that direction then, where in the ROM is the sprite table
for all the variable width characters?
