If I want to expand an IBM PC AT, from 512K to 640K, what is the least
expensive?  I have been told that since I have an IBM and not a clone
that I can only go to 512K on the motherboard, and must buy an add-on
board.  The first store I called said $399 for and AST Advantage.  The
second store said $369 for an Intel Above Board.  Is this the best that
I can do?  The program I am using can not take advantage of any more
than the 640K, but will not perform with 512K and CED installed.  For
those who wish to know, the program is Q & A.
