Just about this demo :
Ninja (the coder of the demo) was ofcourse JOKING in that demo...
ofcourse the VIC doesn't overheat.. mostly becoz it is hardwired,
meaning that is fetches a byte *anyway* wether it has to or not. So
displaying more gfx doesn't require more memory-fetches. Also it
would be nonsense to think that displaying 26 instead of 25 lines
(just 4% more) could possibly heat up the chip =)
hope this clears things up.
