I have an IBM AT with the original IBM EGA card.  It has only
64K of memory.  I would like to have the full 256K of video memory
but do not wish to sacrifice the IBM EGA card (I have a circuit board
attached to the feature connector to give me a 132 column mode).
I have seen a daughterboard for the EGA at a local computer store but
it has only 64K on it and sells for $50.  To purchase the additional 
memory would put the cost over that of one of the new EGA cards.

Does anyone know where I might find a cheaper daughterboard for an IBM EGA?
With memory?

Can the 64K chips on the original IBM EGA card be replaced with 256K
chips so I don't need the daughterboard?

Does anyone have some used TMS 4416 memory chips for sale?

I would like to do this in the least expensive way possible.
