Thank you, Gary, and keep on trying!

Just some careful suggestions to make this more attractive still:
 - Yet greater graphics possibilities? Shouldn't higher clock frequency
make this possible?
 - Is there room for multiple 6809 cores? Or unnecessary when working with
20 MHz anyway?

I will be closely following your further initiatives!

Cheers,
Fedor Steeman
