- As far as i know ( i think you're talking about the GE-Soft Mighty Mic TT-RAM
- expansion) they have 4 Banks on the new board (GE-Soft is just 500m away). But
- also the old 32 MB Boards should support the 16MB Chips so you can expand your
- memory up to 128 MB with an old 32MB board if you have 16 MBit chips at hand.

- I've heard from some users of the board that the newer ones (especially the
- 64MB board) works much better than the old ones. I have an old 32MB board with
- 16MB and never had any problems with it, and the new ones should be better
- (what's better than no problem?).
