the 2C5 fits my vga adapter. needs a external SRAM and vga connector.

i got a sram chip that i successfully soldered to a dip socket adapter to proceed with testings.

Of course the 2C5 is way too small in terms of memory, and also too small
logic-wise, which I mentioned a few weeks ago but that comment appears to
have been ignored as people have continued to entertain the idea of the 2C5
dev board... oh well.

======================================

Is there another mini board similar to the 2C5 that IS large enough?
Memory can even be off the FPGA can it not? Or would that tie up too many
I/O pins? The 2C5 has been mentioned because it's been used to create a
6809 computer, albeit much less capable than a CoCo3 (I think it's more
basic than a CoCo2 even... more like the Micro CoCo).
