- Generally, there`s not "problem".
- The only thing is, if your card adds the Mem to the normal 24bit Adress
- space you`re limited to 8MB expansion mem.
- Also, if this happens, your PCMCIA slot wll be (surely?) useless if you`ve
- added more than 4MB of ram as the adresses collide -> crashes should occur.
-
- I guess there exist a number of accelerators which add the memory at
- another addressm, bypassing this problem (perhaps somebody could post me an
- email whith the names of THESE cards... ? ).

- >anyone have experience of one ?
- Generally, there`s one by Phase5, but delivery-times are quite bad due to
- lack of 060 CPUs.
