RE: VIC-II Info (Multicolour character mode)

I'm not quite convinced. I once made a rasterbar where my $d021 update was 1
cycle too late, and the first pixel (of the normal visible screen, just
right of the border) definately was the color of the previous raster. I know
the hmos vics (THEY SUCK!) have the grey pixel, but I was talking about the
old vics... I'm really really sure the delay is 9 pixels (one cycles + a
bit).

One cycle corresponds to 8 pixels. Colour changes are aligned with the
character cells, more or less. On the HMOS VICs you have a tiny delay
where it displays light grey ($0f) for a fraction of a pixel.
