After reading John's article carefully, I understand what he meant by
"covers up" all three slots.  Stupid me.

So the answer to my question is:  Yes... You can have a EIA/RAM card
and 512K board in at the same time.  However, the most you can have
on the EIA/RAM is 1.0M, and put the 512K board in slot 2 (the third
slot).  So, might as well just put another 512K on the EIA, and take
out the 512K memory board.

ANYBODY HAVE A EIA/RAM COMBO BOARD THAT WORKS FOR SALE??  :-( :-(
I want one bad, but don't want to pay $800.
