- As I understand it, you need to install a RAM cartridge in your DJ 500.
- I don't know wether it needs a 128KB cartridge or a 256KB cartridge so I
- have ordered one of each (on a sale-or-return basis). If nobody else
- responds with a definitive answer before I have tried them out I'll let
- the list know what works.
