I also typed in the program and I had only one checksum error
in the main program 'TETRIS'. But that was no problem, it's
easy to see what the program does (the error was somewhere near
the end of the program; just leave out the "   " and the 2 I
think...?). All the other checksum numbers are correct!!!

Don't.  Just skip that char and type the next line after the
first one.
