One of the changes I mentioned.  I'm sure you're old enough (like me :^))
to remember when it   
was the other way around... CMOS was in the RTC chip, a;; 64 bytes as I
recall.  Damned if I   
can remember the most common maker, tho.  It was a REAL common term years ago. 
 
> the shutdown status byte  
 
What the heck is this?
