  Hi guys....


  I have several text files on various upgrades, I will edit them and then
post so that you can use them.
  Most of my files are on memory upgrades, I am working on several upgrades
myself.  Things like: 65816 running at 4MHz (if I succeed, then getting it
to run at 6MHz will be a piece of cake), high capacity ROMS (so I can stuff
BASIC XE, MAC65, and other various programs all on one rom and stick that
inside my computer), extra I/O chips  (PIA upgrade is done, an ACIA is
planned), extra I/O ports such as the 2 missing joysticks, a true RS232, a
parallel port (for a printer), maybe even a disk drive controller so that
we can use those nifty IBM drives. :)
  It will take some time for me to finish all these, and it may prove to be
impossible in some cases, but as soon as I succeed (or permanently give up)
I'll post.

  The first upgrade text should be posted by the end of this week.  It is a
PIA upgrade so that you can control memory uprades better.

btw...if you have any upgrade texts, please send them to me, I collect
them.
