Well I've got a spare 4MB SIMM here if you want that... I just yanked it out of an old 486SX33 (really past its best I thought)... The sockets are in there two, if you want em??

Again I've got the bits if you're ever runnning low. My life seems to be terminally surrounded by bits of decaying computers. > How many people will have this card?

I mean, if you're going to be overriding all the other bits of the board. And I suppose this way you can plug it all into a nice tower case (with the neccessary blue feet (though mine were black :o<))... I'd have one, just for the novelty of having another weird computer to slot scraps of stuff into.

ISA cross - 0/1 I'd add 1 to everthing... except perhaps ZX128 emul, or maybe that would be nice. Just.. basically. Speed, Speed, Memory and Speed.
