Dear Doctor:
I think this is a good idea.
We may want to consider, however, just how much memory expansion is
practical. 12MB is great, but then you've got that much more important
data to retrieve if your screen gets blitzed. Maybe you could come up
with a package deal that would include a comparably sized linear flash
card for emergency backups? Or am I just horribly paranoid?
Just a suggestion...
BTW: Thanks for all your help in the past.
Cheers,
Jim.
