Hello Chuck,

I appreciate you taking the time to do this.  For
the record I'm not wishing you go in any direction
other than what you need for your work.  For
instance from the little I know about OKAD II it
is graphicly intensive.  But I was wondering the
feasibility of running ColorForth in general on
lower resolutions and/or color depths.  I guess
I'm wondering if I attempted to do this would it
require me to do a major overhaul.

Thanks for the info.  This is the first I'd heard
the name AAD24.  I take it this is your latest chip
project?  Does 24 stand for "24 bits" or "24
processors"?
