Bill,

Take another look.  If this is the same card that was being discussed in
Portfolio circles awhile back it is 256k BITS not BYTES...

(Wow, a Portfolio owner actually contributing to the 48SX disscussion thread!!!
ASTOUNDING!!!)

(No I don't own a HP...)

On this thorny subject.  If everybody just adopted a standard entry of say:
HP48 or some such I could quite easily search for this and junk the entry if I
wanted...

Of course that must be too simple.

Cheers,

BB
