Hi:

  Well the external ram disk chip is back from fab and is talking
to the atari! All I have to do is write a driver now. I ran it with
2 meg (64 256K chips) and average current is only 1/2 amp. Peak is
way up there... 3~4 amps. But no cooling fan is required, yippee.
I still have to due extensive testing, including reliability testing.
Sure wish ram prices would come down.

P.S. Sorry to the people who send me mail, wanting a reply and not
getting it. I try, but can't seem to get through on some paths.
