You're not going to find a supercap that'll a) Keep RAM alive as long as a healthy NiCd will, and 2) Fit inside the case. Or inside your trunk, probably... But what you can do is 1) Use Eneloop "Low Self-Discharge" AAs, which if your RAM is healthy (not drawing much stand-by

Update… It was the RAM module. After thinking about it after Fugu’s email the other day it occurred to me I had done a capture of the standard RAM bank select lines (and I happened to dave it) and after looking at it again it looked fine. This evening I pulled the standard RAM module out,

A minor request, providing a straight .DO or BA instead of a zip makes it easier to open in CloudT from my iPhone. As far as I know I can’t unzip a file on the iPhone or transfer it into Google Drive in any obvious way. — John.
