This is basically a curiousity question, but I thought that the new
GS still only had 64K DOC RAM.  I seem to remember that everyone who
cared about such things was extremely disappointed that Apple Co. did
not improve the GS in this area.

Could someone cite a reference as to the true size of DOC RAM in the
ROM 03 GS?  Isn't there a new hardware reference for the ROM 03?
