Who knows which is and where is the ROM character generator chip for the CGA display in a NEC Ultralife 286f notebook? Who knows if such chips are in general interchangeable between machines of different makes? The issue behind the questions is to produce Hebrew characters instead of "national" characters on such a notebook, hopefully by just replacing the ROM chip with something otherwise compatible. Or is it technically conceivable (and perhaps readily available off the shelf somewhere) to fake the ROM by software? Thanks in advance - Jacques Goldberg, Prof of Physics, Technion, Haifa, Israel
