Its not very difficult to do a software 80 columns on the C64 using a high-res
screen.  There's a PD VT-52 program that does this, I believe Compute! had an
article on it awhile ago, and if that's not enough, I wrote some PROMAL code
a few years back that drives a software described 80 column display very
easily.  Let me know if you're interested in seeing the code, I might be able
to post it or send you a disk.
