/*
The Atari 7800 uses display lists and interrupts to
partition the video frame, but the 6502 can also be
synchronized with each scanline. When the CPU strobes
the WSYNC register, the CPU is halted until the end
of the current scanline. This is similar to the WSYNC
register on the Atari 2600, except that VBLANK and
VSYNC are automatically applied.
