   Hmm, if it becomes an issue, has anyone thought about doing their   
   own CG set?  I haven't looked, but I suppose the first thing to do is   
   to find out if there are 'one shot prom' parts available in the   
   configuration   
   to match the CG part.  Then make up whatever set you want (or just   
   copy a known set I suppose).   
      
   CG sets are incredibly easy to tamper with.  Heck, at one point I even   
   took out the ROM in my LP VI and did a custom CG for it.  (I was   
   ticked that the LP VI character set didn't match the Model II when I   
   did my listings, so I fixed it)
