Could anyone elaborate on how the cache slot for the Mac IIci works?
Does the type of cache (direct-mapped, associative, set-associative)
depend on the certain type of card that is placed in the slot or is
the cache fixed into a certain type of organization?  I have heard
rumours that it is direct mapped only, but am not too sure about the
reliability of this comment.

Thanks.
