Right, then got some tome earlier this evening to desolder the MC6847 VDG video chip and this gave me also the opportunity to try out my new desolder gun which work out as expected and quite speedy procedure. So first step locating and desoldering: dragon64_mc6847vdg.jpg And once done here is the re...

Yes very nice and thanks for sharing. Wasn't able to go to this event, so this video give a glimpse of what was going on this weekend.

Did check with Brendan and while he haven't verified himself he had reports that the cards should work together. But the combo of the 80-column display and the CoCoVGA card really sounds nice
