Hello William, I would encourage you to re-read my post and try that again. I was referring to the 16 Mb SDRAM she's including. That means 24 bits of addressing. I'm guessing she's including some complex decoding logic similar to the C-128's MMU to resolve the 24-bit addressing over the 16-bit buss. Still, wouldn't be very hard to widen a 'BANK' register by 8-bits, would it? --- William Levak <wlevak@cyberspace.org> wrote: > On Mon, 12 Mar 2001, Professor Dredd wrote: > > > Honestly, I don't know exactly why she chose to > limit > > it to 16 Mb video RAM.
