Someone filled in the blank on my comment about the bank selection
abilities of Action!.  I suggested it might be 32k (there was a 
question mark after that estimate) and Ray supplied the proper 8k
figure.  He added that only 8k is in memory at once.  This might
not be true.  According to the documentation, if used in conjunction
with the DOS-XL (the advancement from OS/A+, also by OSS), there is
the possibility that you can access 4 of the 8k that the Action!
cart seems to occupy, reducing the total occupancy to a minimum
of 4k!  (NOTE: I havn't TRIED this, just reporting the possibility...)

Does anyone know if DOS-XL is really required to do this trick?
