Modifying Free42 to take advantage of a bigger screen isn't actually all that difficult... The greater problem is all the programs that expect the screen to be 22x2 characters or 131x16 pixels.

Using the extra space to show the stack instead, or more than two program lines, makes sense. Of course it would be cool if there were a mode where you could use all that space from a program, so you could use PIXEL and AGRAPH to be able to cover all that space, and increasing the size of ALHPA accordingly as well. We'll have to wait and see. :-)
