Definately. My old NitrOS-9 boot disk goes right into 80x24 mode but you
can still open a 32x16 window. I remember it not being very easy to
configure things this way. It should be standard to go into a more modern
video mode instead of staying in the past. That's just my opinion, so
don't sue me.
I think Boisy has done an unbelievable job with the new NitrOS-9
efforts. What would be even better is to visually showing that the L2
version has evolved for the CoCo 3. A simple standard 80x24 mode would be
very nice.
