I have an Atari 130XE computer and have read things in the manual about
a RAM Disk that is available with the 1050 drive and 2.5 DOS.  Apparently
it is intended for use with the extra 65K of RAM in the 130XE. I
don't have a 1050 but would like to have RAM disk capability working in
conjunction with my AT88 drives from Percom.  Anyone familiar with how
to do this, please let me know.  To further complicate things, I would
*really* like a RAM Disk version of OSS DOS-XL (I guess its back to the
old device handler tables again)!
