8301 is a good project if you want a hobbyist addon for the QL.
It is a very fragile chip, and is one I still sell a lot of. I am
nearing the end of the pile though. A plug-in replacement, and it would
probably be only one or two logic chips, should have extended screen and
colour support under SMSQ/E

Possibly not - the code is very much an integral part of the 17C44 code
written by Laurence Reeves, and still owned (and understood) by him
alone. lausATlausDOT demonDOTcoDOTuk
