This machine did not have a mc6845 but still managed to emulate most of CGA capabilities. Notably, it did not have a native text mode; when one is set via BIOS call, writes to lower half of video memory cause a NMI and ISR then draws pixels into upper half. Bit 7 in every character cell is magic and selects 'alternate foreground' color for that cell.
