In my honest opnion, we should avoid to open the classic what if chapter here, or we're gonna get stuck for sure I guess that Litwr asked for what they really do.

On the other hand, the TED really could have used at least one decent timer, whose reload value can be set without disturbing its current countdown value. Preferably two of those. I'd be more than happy to sacrifice the hardware cursor and the third timer for this functionality, for instance.

The RTC without a battery is a typical misnomer because it is not an RTC at all. However I mentioned both "RTC" in the table. IMHO the number of timers and pseudo-RTC on the C64 is a typical example of extra functionality that nobody needs.

@bszggg: FWIW, both CIAs have ToD capability. Although, it is a far cry from a real RTC, it is still infinitely closer to it than anything in a 264er machine.

@Litwr if you catch the right wave of Lemon64 users, it could potentially become a round of crap, how it has already been several times on those forums. Finger crossed it won't
