The Tigervision hardware only supports 4-bit addressing (= 32KB). But it should be easy to expand to 8-bits. Just need to add another chip. If you don't need RAM and you're happy with a single 2K switchable block, Tigervision is probably the way to go for now. Basically, the Megacart is sorta like a Tigervision cart on steroids. > > BTW Chris, how is the Megacart going. :-) :( Well, all development has been put on hold. [enter sad violin music] I'm going back to school this fall (hopefully), and trying to end my job, move across the continent, find a place to live when I get there, and find a decent part-time job has taken all my energy for the past few months. I will get back to it, but I have no idea when. Grrrr.... > Hopefully, Stella will support the Megacart in the final 1.0 > release.

I'd like to see it! ;) -Chris -- Archives (includes files) at http://www.biglist.com/lists/stella/archives/ Unsub & more at http://www.biglist.com/lists/stella/
