Hmm, I can't find my Vizastar 64 right now, but I do have the Vizastar 128 right here (where did I put the instruction manual?). Hard to take a screenshot of the 80-column RGB screen; however, if I can find the Info 64 magazine that reviewed it, there was a screenshot there. Vizastar 64 has the same capabilities as Vizastar 128 but with less memory, only 1 mhz. instead of 2 mhz., and only a 40-column composite screen.
Here is what is on the packaging of Vizastar 128 --
