[Coco] Adapting a V9958 64-pin Chip to fit a Solderless Breadboard

[Kip Koon]

Daniel,
This is a much clearer version than I have.  However, the V9958 Technical
Manual v1.0 only covers the differences.
You will also need the V9938 Technical Data Book at the following address.
http://www.msxarchive.nl/pub/msx/docs/datasheets/v9938.pdf
I have an excellent PDF of it, but I don't remember where I got it, so I'll
email  to anyone who needs it.  I'll post it here when I find it.
Kip

V9958 is used on the MSX2+ and TurboR MSX machines.
