Re: A83: TI COLOR!!!!
Couple of things:
The ti-83+ uses the t6a04 display driver (same as the ti-83 and 82, and I
wouldn't be supprised if the 73 used it as well, the 85 and 86 wouldn't use
it) (ti's sdk, 82-ports.txt)
The t6a04 is capable of 120x64 bit displays, both ti83 and ti-83+ only have
96x64 lcds. Would it be possible to use the extra space for storage if
someone were really, really hungry for RAM, and not caring too much about
frames per second? It is (sits here using pen and paper with an 83+ and an 89
2 feet away) 192 bytes free.
Or is there some hardware hacker who could make a 120x64 display for it?
(might look wierd on most programs)
Has anyone looked at all of the "INVALID" bits in test mode (db1, db1, db0)?
I am guessing that they all do something, but toshiba doesn't want people to
know.

btw anyone else seen the "2 color" pong at calc.org for the 83+?
Doesn't look like much color to me. (even in a well lighted room)
