That makes a lot of sense, britlion. A 320x200 VGA screen is just enough to fit a Spectrum's 256x192 pixels plus a bit of a border. That could allow Spectrum games to be rebuilt for DOS without any changes -- potentially a killer feature for ZXBasic, as people have worked hard to make such ports (I seem to remember that the Warajevo emulator could package a copy of itself along with a game snapshot in a single .exe). And then you could provide extensions for e.g. changing the color palette, accessing the filesystem...
