Not really a coprocessor, but it's getting there. Unfortuantely, it only saw action in Pitfall II. Regarding the POKEY chip...I knew that at least one of them (7800 games) had a pokey on board. I'd also be interested in getting datasheets for that little marvel :) Seems like I saw a technical document floating around a couple of years ago, but I didn't snag it then, and I haven't seen it for a while now.... -Chris -- Archives (includes files) at http://www.biglist.com/lists/stella/archives/ Unsub & more at http://www.biglist.com/lists/stella/
