We want high res graphics. We already have high res graphics (480x432). I think what you mean is "high colour" graphics.   donmck said   Don't try to super charge this thing and destroy the simplicity of it. It you need something super, either outboard design it, use a PC, or talk from MM to a PC. I agree. Make it expensive and it will lose it's popularity. A low cost add-on is more likely to succeed otherwise you'll be competeing with a $300 netbook. Could be better to design a USB interface board that gives the netbook the I/O that hardware people want. The colour is just adding to the appeal of the MM being a "personal computer" like the days of old. Built-in BASIC, ready to go. The colour would be usefull for graphs and data displays when used in a serious applications.
