Another alternative is STonehenge. It is a ramdisk kit that connects to
the DMA (hard disk) port. It allows 2 meg of 256 x 1 dynamic ram chips in
banks of 8. I built one several months ago and have had very little
trouble. It is available from:
Contact: Ron Schreiner (312) 520-8003
RONSAT Technologies Inc.
368 Lexington Drive.
Buffalo Grove, IL. 60089
The STonehenge kit priced at $169.95 includes;
a. STonehenge ASIC,
b. Double sided PCB,
c. 20MHZ crystal,
d. DB-19 connector,
e. Documentation,
f. Software,
g. PGA socket for the ASIC.
The Documentation and Software can be ordered separately
for $10.00 (refundable with future purchase).
The builder of the kit must provide the DRAMs, a 5V 2A
power supply, and a few miscellaneous components that are
readily available from electronic suppliers.
Additional support kits that provide all the components
are also available.

I have a software patch if you do get it. There was a small bug in the
software.
