Articles recently have been saying how much better the Rocket Chip is than
the Zip Chip.  I currently have the 4 mhz Zip, but plan on upgrading to
a faster chip as soon as I find someone who is really and truly shipping
them.  If the Rocket is significantly faster than the Zip, well, there
goes my brand loyalty :-).

However, I seem to recall last year something about the Rocket Chip not
being compatible with Apple (aka Ramfactor) style memory expansion cards.
Since both of my //e's have this type of card, the Rocket would be quite
useless to me.

Has this problem been fixed?
