Mark McDougall's PACE with LCD screen
(from the "16-bit c64/128" thread in comp.sys.cbm

The current hardware has a 240x320 screen, which is a PITA! I've been told the next revision will be 320x240 which is much better. The only problem with LCD is that the refresh is fixed at 60Hz. But with small memory mapped screens, it's possible to use internal dual-port ram blocks and decouple the screen refresh completely from the rest of the system clocking... time will tell if it materializes.
