In Topic: New GUI for the Atari 8-bit

@MrFish: GEM was named by Digital Research Inc. It's name is a retroactive acronym, originally it was just called Gem because the initial project to turn their GSX retargetable graphics library into a workable graphical context system was called "Crystal"...which, in and of itself was a play on IBM's code name for a GUI called "Project Glass" ... basically, GSX became VDI, and AES was added to handle the interaction bits.

irony is, you could probably shove ALL of it onto the FPGA (including the 65816) ;)

Ah, wait.. read the earlier comment...looks like that IS the plan. ;)
