Chris I have a vague recollection the VRPC ARM7500 emulated a machine that
could use 16 Mbytes of VRAM thus allowing for bigger and better screen
modes. (The VRPC-SA was/is only 8 Mbytes VRAM.
Probably someone like Druck or T.O.M.S. or even Andrew might know the
actual answer as I'm running on a dodgy memory... (That's me not the
computer) :-(
