To any who would like to comment,

  I wouldn't actually go buy one for my Newt nor have I seen them around
lately but a long time ago in a galaxcy far far away when I had a Zoomer a
two meg (the biggest I'd ever seen for sale) was more than adequate to hold
all my data and software and collecting dust somewhere around here is both
the Zoomer and the two meg card. So I was wondering if I could speed up the
performance by using it in my second slot.

Whadayathink?
