The NEC 7220 is a real dog to interface to (but then again, "software
doesn't cost anything" ...).  I would instead recommend the Hitachi
63484, which has a 16-bit interface, and has clipping.  It generates a
variety of graphic primitives, runs "quickly" without "snow mode", and
handles up to 4K x 4K x 16 frame stores.
