Somewhere I have a Master with C,V and X transposed - they produce characters, 
just not in the right order. Keyboard works fine otherwise, which is the 
surprising bit (I'm amazed the problem doesn't affect more keys)

Some day I'll dig schematics out and figure it out - unless it's a bit-rot 
problem in the MOS... (although it seems like a strange stuck-bit failure)

I kind of like it as it is though as it's kind of... different :-)
