(I am not able to reply directly since I have not subscribe to Info-
 Apple, so this is direct to the person who answer my original question
 by lots of 640-mode mini palettes theory.)

No, you get me wrong. I am not saying both 640 mode and 320 mode should
have the SAME value in the palette. Let's keep 640 mode fixed, since it
is very hard to change a colour without affecting another. So the 640
mode palette is fine. But what about 320 mode? Why the way they assign
the colour so #$@|%& that the colour position is so DIFFERENT from 640
mode? Black is always colour 0, and white 15, so why not standardize
the other colours, so red is 5 (for example. I cannot remember the exact
value) for both modes, and 10 is blue, etc. So no matter you are in
which mode, you can always get a red colour.
