        I'm writing to let you know about problems I am seeing trying to run
some favourite games on Steem 2.4.

        Obsession (DBUG) - I cannot get beyond the "press space" screen. I
can only get this far using TOS 1.62 and 1MB or 2MB of memory. With TOS 1.02
and 2.06 it bombs on the opening menu after a few seconds. 

        Space Shuttle (DBUG) - It looks to work OK, except the the Mission
Elapsed Timer (MET) fails to could down. It shows seconds counting down from
99 to 0 and just cycles back to 99 seconds again. 
        
        Carrier Command - It looks to run normally, but after about an
hour's game time it halts the game and Steem itself runs very slowly until
an ST reset is done. If a saved game or memory snapshot is loaded just
before it halted, the game still halts at the same point in game time.

        Borodino - Loads OK, but the mouse clicks do not work. I must
confess I've not tried this game on Steem 2.4 as yet, but the problem was
present on 2.06.

        Otherwise this is an excellent emulator - well done! It's far more
convenient than using the original machine..
