Well just given the description "high speed video" I'm guessing it'll
require quite a few pixels supporting quite a few colors. It's hard to
know without more information from Harold. But if the display was one
of these for instance:

http://www.sparkfun.com/commerce/product_info.php?products_id=8335

You're looking at a frame buffer size of 480*272*3. Double-buffering
for video that comes out to about 768kB. This is definitely out of
range of the 16F84A's internal memory :)

Maybe Harold could tell us a little more about his application so we
can make some more educated guesses?

Cheers,
Zik
