Re: A83: ASM83-or-ASM89???
Yep, you're exactly right. Problem w/the 83 is that we have to use PLOTSCREEN and copy it, whereas the other newer calcs have
directed memory maps of the LCD. So the 83 looks like its flashing the screen on and off quickly...whereas the others look
greyscale :) (hehe, Olle).
