[Coco] "VideoPak" hardware question

Yes. Quite possible, but who's going to do it?

And if it were done, you wouldn't be seeing much in the way of
graphics programs. The larger memory requirements of VGA is more work
for our 1.79Mhz 8bit CPU.

The question I ask is, when does a CoCo cease becoming a CoCo?

 OK - separating out my question from a previous thread...

 Would it be possible, similar to how there were 80column cartridges,
to make a "VGA Cartridge" for more advanced graphics?
