There are numerous computers like the Olivetti M24(SP)/AT&T PC 6300 and Compaq Portable III/386 which support a 640x400 mode with 2 colors (1bit) due to their enhanced CGA graphics cards having 32kb of memory.
I wonder if there is a way to also display 640x200 with 4 colors (2bits) instead of only the standard CGA 2 color (1bit) mode, as this would require 31.25kb of memory, which still fits into their 32kb.
Tandy and PCjr were able to according to http://www.pixelatedarcade.com/tech_attributes/overview/tandy-pcjr-graphics.
Now I wonder if this mode can also be accessed on my M24SP and P386.
