Hah!!!  As far as I've been able to find, there is NO WAY to access the
other 128k of the Transwarp card.  Some of my friends and associates figure
that there is 256k on the board for two reasons only:

a) 8 256k chips take less room than 16 64k chips.
b) They can claim 256K onboard (physically correct).

I have never seen ANYTHING that uses the other 128k; I'm not even sure it's
mapped or hardware-connected!

Of course, I could be wrong...
