  17. It it the VDP RAM or the GROM that is slow?   I think it is the GROM,

  19. the console) unless you go to soething like XB II w/128K, putting it
  20. all in RAM...
  21. (Without GROM, of course, you wouldn`t have quite enough memory for
  22. everything on an open-architectur9900 based computer).
