Yes...I think making silly, mindless mistakes like I made above is
the punishment one gets for posting at 4AM! 

I'll look around for a 16K DRAM, maybe some EE major or whoever has a few left
over from High School..(Or Junior High School? :)  ). If not, I'll get 
another 16K card...$39 seems like a lot to spend for a new chip, though! :)
This is an Apple II, not a Mac! ;)

Yup...and Disk-Fer and Catsend before that...It's hard to believe I used to
think 202 was FAST!

Thanks for the help!
