That's that other developer's excuse, you know, Donald J. Trump.

It has dual monitor support (and Amiga doesn't yet)?! I never knew you could use two monitors on the C128. _________________ I sold my SAM460ex lite... waiting for money to buy a Raspberry Pi... or a Classic A1000 with Buffee... or an A1222... and OS4.3 FE update 11 |

Yes, with the right programming, you can use the 40-column (composite/s-video) and the 80-column (RGB-digital) modes at the same time. There was another program or two that made use of this capability, but I can't remember which ones at the moment.

| Who knew the 128 was the first dual-screen machine?
For graphics, you can turn "FAST" mode on when the border is being drawn and back to "SLOW" mode on the actual bitmap....this nets you about 20% performance improvement in processing power over 1Mhz mode since the VIC-II chip can't display anything in 2Mhz mode.
The Elite 128 (which runs in 64 mode) takes advantage of this.... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K9xMuskMERw |

Not sure which was the first, but at least the IBM PC could run a MDA+CGA(/EGA/VGA) dual screen setup, and it predates the C128 by a few years. |
