- No, it's just a feature of the current EC020 architecture that it can
- address 16 MB total, where 8 MB of which can be Fast RAM. And if you
- use something in the PCMCIA slot, this eats 4 MB of these 8 MB, so
- that it would be 4 MB PCMCIA + 4 MB "real" FAST RAM. The Web page
- doesn't say *how* this RAM expansion can be done. It doesn't claim
- that could be done without some card.
