There is no reason that an external card couldn't do this by bypassing
the Amiga video chip set and dma'ing out of memory. As George said the
main problem with an internal solution is that we can't generate pixels
finer than 35nSec. Agnus can probably generate the RS343 timing signals
okay, its just that you wouldn't get that many pixels on the screen.
What I'm pointing out is that we can probably support the standard by
putting out a display , albeit a rather coarse one. Hope this helps.
