REX2 was an original attempt at a module that supported CP/M.  It did not
survive!  I think I made 6 of them total.  Those 6 worked fine as a
standard REX.
With only 128k of RAM, it would have needed some pretty fancy software to
turn a flash chip into a read/write disk drive.

REXCPM takes a different approach - no flash, just a whopping big SRAM.

Plus many other improvements in design that I have aggregated  up over all
the different REX related activities.
