No, then there is a 74LS139 connected to one of the PLA outputs and that 
doesn't give any trouble.

The vertical bars are indeed strange. Especially since they only happen 
in the border area where the Char-ROM is not involved in any way.

Did you remember to put the pullups where they belong so that no input 
of the LS00 or LS11 is ever floating, no matter what your switches are 
set to? Also, did you remember to include 100nF ceramic capacitors 
between GND and Vcc for the LS?
