    Hi, The thing is the DAZZLER is not designed for that kind of graphics, it's like if I compared a 2K/inch pixel image comparing it to your IBM image. Also, besides resolution and speed problems is memory limits. .

    Cromemco dazzler replica project

    Hi, I think we need to see a single page (PDF?) of all the fixes, and then another (PDF?) of the testing. The idea of a board that needs to be studied in several dozen if not 100 or so pages of the forum isn't very inviting. .
