It is a stock box with a 2090A controller and the Rodime 40MB disk. When OS2.0 is shipped I will seriously be considering upgrading my 2000 with the new OS and the ECS. Will this upgrade allow me to use the 1MB memory chips on the mother board rather than the 256k chips, similarly to what can be done on the 3000? If not, please tell me what is different that prevents this. If it is do-able, what will have to be modified/replaced/etc? What would be the limitations of fast and/or chip memory? I would expect that if this is possible it would be very cost effective over a memory expansion board. Your thoughts on this are most welcome!!
