The OKS MultiKache and the AE TransWarp GS CAN be used in the same machine,
and you CAN use the MultiKache in DMA mode.  Early versions of the TWGS won't
work, but the current revision will.  Basically, the TransWarp GS flushes its
cache whenever it sees DMA taking place.  This means that after the DMA, the
system runs a little slower for a moment because all accesses to the cache
will miss.  But it does work.  The limiting factor in DMA is the RAM cards --
some don't support it, some only support it in the first 1 meg, and some only
in the first four megs.
