Here is another PropBASIC demo program.
This is Conway's game of life on a 256x192 matrix.
Output is NTSC from the Demo board.

P.S. Still looking for more beta testers...Please send me a PM if you are interested.

Bean.

    Ah, that looks interesting.

    Can it drive VGA?

    As an aside I've been doing a lot of work with vga text and obviously text needs a lot less memory. Graphics takes more memory but there must be a small size where there is enough memory, even if it is only a 256x192 or 128x64 matrix? A little display in the centre of a VGA screen would be better than nothing.

    One idea would be to use the special characters to generate simple graphical displays.

    I haven't done any VGA drivers, but it's is something I want to work on.
    I need to purchase a new VGA monitor.
