People:
please forget about the inferred palettes (flexible RGB). I was wrong to make of subject out of it in the first place.
I want to apologize for discussing such non-standard issues.
Please don't flame anymore on the palette issue.
Flames on the SCUMM interpreter hardware are welcome.

BTW i was not planning of having the VM hardware as the sole processor in the system.
I have already built (for teaching a lab) and 2-core system with PicoBlaze -- an 8-bit processor -- (for controlling a 2x16 character LCD) and a RISC processor of mine with about 27-28 simple instructions. So the concept is to use a VM hardware and a processor for RTOS tasks (context switches basically) and everything else. Thus, general-purpose code will run on the GPP and will not utilize the VM hardware.
