+Fairly self-explanatory. Disks may be .dsk, .po, or .nib images
+(although .nib images aren't very heavily tested, particularly for
+write support). Hard drives are raw 32MB files, whose filenames must
+end in .img.
+
+Suspend and Restore
+-------------------
+
+The Teensy can be fully suspended and restored - including what disks
+are inserted. It's a full VM hibernation. It currently writes to a
+file named "suspend.vm" in the root of the MicroSD card. (I would like
+to be able to select from multiple suspend/restore files
+eventually. It wouldn't be terribly hard; it's just that the BIOS
+interface is very limited.)
+
+Prioritize Display/Audio
+------------------------
+
+Any Apple emulator needs real-time support for audio. The hardware is
+very direct: when a particular memory location ($C030) is read from or
+written to, the speaker's state is toggled. By doing this at specific
+times, the Apple generates a square wave - and this is the basis of
+the built-in audio. Obviously, then, the CPU has to be running at a
+specific frequency and the updates to the speaker have to come at
+exactly the right time.
+
+The Mac version of AiiE runs the CPU a few cycles fast; and then while
+it's waiting for the CPU to catch up, it's slowly toggling the speaker
+at the right time. This works well because the actual computer it's
+running on is so much faster than the CPU it's emulating.
+
+The Teensy verison can't afford all that overhead. It runs the virtual
+CPU in batches of 24-ish cycles, unless it updates the speaker; in
+which case, the virtual CPU returns control to the main program
+early. This was important while the Teensy code was queueing... but
+the queueing has since been removed, and its virtual MMU directly
+toggles the speaker as the virtual CPU is running. (This isn't quite
+as accurate as the Mac verison but it's close enough; uses less RAM;
+and uses less CPU.)
+
+While all that's running, the display is also updating from the main
+loop. The trobule is that it takes quite a lot of time to update the
+display. Much longer than one CPU cycle. Much longer than hundreds of
+CPU cycles. Which means that one of two bad things happens.
+
+Either (a) the CPU can run and update the video while you're still
+pushing that video to the screen - which means you can wind up with
+(e.g.) half a cloud in Skyfox at the top of the screen, and nothing
+immediately below it, because the video is "tearing" (getting partial
+results that change over time as it scans down the screen); or (b) you
+block the CPU from running while updating the display, which means the
+CPU runs in fits and starts. Since the audio is directly coupled to
+the CPU that also means the audio will be very messed up.
+
+So this BIOS option lets you choose whether you want good audio or good video.
