I just got my "DirecTIons" magazine today and wanted to check it before I
answered.  Three companies that I can find ...

	1) Persyst... Will have a board to upgrade upto 768K 'stead of 512K
		as before.   Should be available in Aug/Sept.  I used their
		first board for TIPCs in 'bout all the TIPC's I used whilest
		I was at TI.  I used the early multifunction with serial port,
		battery-backedup clock, assorted software with rarely any
		problems.  Details on new board upgrade from "Second Source",
		214-276-5525 (not Persyst).

	2) Western Automation... A variety of boards including memory
		upgrades.  Current adds show a 20- or 40-Meg hardcard
		(winnie on a card).  Don't know if it's out yet.
		W-A, Boulder, CO  800-227-4637

	3) The TIPC Network... Hard drives, Memory (sells W-A products),
		and other option boards and software.
		POBox 2414, Sioux City, IA   800-233-TIPC

	4) EPIC Sales...in Garland, TX  Drives, W-A expansion boards.
		214-272-5724   I've dealt with these folks.  Usually
		pretty good.

Er.. I lied - Four.

Disclaimer:  I make no warrantee about these companies or their products.
I am in no way connected with them or TI ('cept for a coupla shares of
TI common stock).


Good luck!
