Thanks make sure to check out the Chameleon if you like the Arduino. It has arduino compatability but it also has multi-core video chip on it. See for yourself at chameleon-dev . com

What resolution is the display?

I just checked some of the old code since its been over a year and a half since I did this. It was running at 155x135. I wasn't really trying to push it more or less just playing and the key was interfacing a CPLD to the AVR.

I think you don't pronounce AVR properly, its pronounced "A", "V", "R" ...

I am just being picky :), great job !
