Hey all you hardware types!  Has anyone got any idea how to hack 2 Megs of
Chip RAM out of a B2000 using the new 2 Meg Agnus?  Surely one of you A1000
owners who have done some much great hardware hacks for it has upgraded to the
B2000 and is as desperate for 2 Megs of chip as I.  

I'm not in a position where I have the time to look into this myself (at least
for another year in my E.E. program) but I was thinking maybe a piggy back set
up with an extra address line added.  I recall a similar hack on my TRaSh-80
color computer for 32K on a 16K machine that worked fine.  I don't know if
there's enough physical room on the motherboard, but if there is....

If no one is looking into this, perhaps a techie at C= could give me enough
info (and 2 Meg Agnus availability) for me to give it a try, I WAS looking
for a senior project :-)
