	The board takes advantage of the automatic memory recognition/
	configuration at C00000 to D80000 that was implemented in the
	Kickstart 1.2 release.

	I would guess they put the switches there to allow some other options
	or use in conjunction with some other product that uses the C0
	address range.  Of course you could buy two and stack them, *BUT*
	since they are not buffered this would make many an Amiga *very*
	flakey...
