Message-ID: <1779@vu-vlsi.Villanova.EDU> Date: 1 Aug 88 17:15:50 GMT Organization: Villanova Univ. EE Dept. Lines: 10 This 1024x800 black and white monitor that Commodore plans to release sounds exciting, especially since it will work with my A1000. However, my concern is the amount of CHIP RAM this is going to hog up. My understanding is that it will need eight 640x400, 4-bit plane screens. Will this hog up all 512K of standard CHIP RAM, so that multi-tasking will be out of the question? Wilson Cheung
