\ Simulate power-on Reset on any BBC/Master/Electron series
\ =========================================================
\ The MOS checks the System VIA interupt bit to test if a RESET is
\ from a power on. The Electron does not have a System VIA, and the
\ power-on state is a flag in the System ULA.
