- I use a commodore 64 1764 reu expanded to 512K on my c64 with GEOS. It is
- great for graphics as everything works faster. The only limitation I find
- is that the REU will only hold as much data as would a floppy. I
- understand there is a GEOS utility 'out there' that would enable me to
- access the entire 512K, but I don't know where to get it. ( If anyone
- knows, please E-mail me: bq292@freenet.carleton.ca)
-
- Of course all data copied to the REU disappears when you shut off the
- computer....
