Just to cause some confusion grayscale is possible in basic.

A greyscale (is it grey or gray, I know it's grey but it get's confusing when everybody spells it differently) box:

Line(2,2,9,2
Line(9,2,9,9
Line(9,9,2,9
Line(2,9,2,2
Repeat 0
For(X,0,1
Line(1,1,10,1,X
Line(10,1,10,10,X
Line(10,10,1,10,X
Line(1,10,1,1,X
End:End

I guess a better suiting description would be simulated greyscale, but it's greyscale graphics none the less.

All grayscale only looks gray. The only difference is Asm grayscale blinks faster. But it's still alternating black and white pixels.

I wonder if you could create colors by just blinking the cristals of the LCD screen in a certain frequency. Even assembly would be far too slow but still.

Certain frequency would be a certain color, low frequency is red, highest is blue.

Actually i think it is grey because the pixel doesn't have enough time to completely turn off and on so it's stuck in the middle.

My point is that Basic greyscale works the same way as asm grayscale.
