I remember mentioning the FLASH EPROMs to Bob when he first suggested the SRAM project. I think Simon and Martin someone designed a 512K Flash ROM thing for the SAM. But, as with any other idea put to Bob, he's thrown it out of the window to keep to his own. Which is fair enough since, apparently, he "owns" the SAM market. Doesn't matter now, anyway. I've almost got all the parts to build my own 512K Flash + 128K ram interface. I just got to sit down and make the thing. Well, I will do after I make my PIC programmer + assembler in Pro-DOS. (I promised to make a MIDI-filter for a friend of mine) After that, I think I'll go and write myself a "stupid scrolly demo" since I've never done one before... Justin. PS. Why isn't there a 12v supply to the expansion port???
