== Off the edge of the console ==
Is it possible to move the program counter somewhere so that it gets to the end of all the data and can't move any further? What happens if you do that? Does it loop around to the beginning? Does it start executing code based on what's outside the device? Does it freeze? Does it fall of the edge of the console and start executing random code until it executes a command to start executing actual data? Does the console explode? (that is very unlikely).
