Oh, I'd not even considered that (obviously ;-) Unfortunately the only RAM
on the card is a CXK5816 IC, which is organized as 2048x8 - and it seems
that Hercules needs a shade under 32KB (720x348 @ 1bpp).
I suppose it's possible that there's additional SRAM within one of the
48-pin ICs, but I would have thought that unlikely (why design a custom IC
with half the memory needed for it to work, when you could just have fewer
pins and put all the memory off-IC)
