Can it be done? Instead of wasting time on pouët I mean.

We should have more of those 8088 compos. If I wasn't busy making noize demos I would like to contribute something too. Dithered or not.

I have all these effects I'd like to try to reproduce on 8088, maybe even using 3-voice audio and 16-color lowres on PCjr or Tandy 1000, but simply no time. I got as far as adding basic 3-voice support to a basic tracker (MONOTONE) but it's not decent enough for good music (yet). Maybe after MindCandy 3...

4.77MHz 8088 is roughly equal to 1MHz 6502, because for all of the 16-bit register ops and real MUL/DIV and string functions, it loses on other stuff (all memory accesses take 4 cycles). Only thing 8088 lacks is decent graphics. If you have EGA or VGA with redefinable character set, then sure, a lot of C64 plasma effects are possible.
