I have read/viewed that at Acorn the Engineers were unhappy with the 6847 video ic but what could/would
have been their favoured affordable alternative given that even a 60Hz 9918-series ic looks not yet available:
what was an affordable alternative, I presume 6845 and teletext too expensive and has no hi res gfx anyway....?
Use the zx80/1 trick but with z80 as the video controller with 6502 as main cpu..? Something cleverer with a 6845 but no custom chips..? Something else . ?
