Re: 7854 RAM magic
David, Do you have the schematics of this later memory board? I think it would be a great modification to change the earlier board to do this too. Regards, David Partridge

I'll email it directly in two seconds, since attachments tend to be dropped from the mailing list. I just scanned the two pages into one tif file. Chopping it up is left as an exercise for the reader.
