Thanks for the clarification.

REX is probably the best solution cost wise. It's not just this ROM, you
effectively get every ROM. And you can patch ROMs. And you can have RAM
environments for different applications including the active Option ROM.
And you'll not need to be plugging and unplugging option ROM for different
John,
Unfortunately, the option rom slot requires an adapter on all thee
machines (100/102/200). The NEC units can take a regular rom.
There used to be adapters by EME/Traveling Software ect that worked to
convert a standard 27C256 but they are hard to come by now. There is one
adapter on OSH
Maybe I'm a bit confused on this - the way I read it, it's only the
original-PCB Model 100 that requires an adapter, and the revised
version (and, I assumed, the M102) simply uses a 27C256 as-is? Or am I
wrong on that? I suppose a REX would be a simpe solution, but I don't
really want to drop
Sure. or you can get a REX from me as well and never have to burn again
