^a few^far^

Not quite. Having fully populated Persyst boards in all of my
older TIPC systems the absence of the "new" ROMs prevents it from
addressing the top 16-bytes of 512K memory. B{F}D! It hasn't
caused me any problems and I tend to push my TIPCs quite bit.
>TI soaks you somewhere between $40-$60 for the new ROM chips.
That's life. I s'pose that MOST anyone else would be doing the same thing.
>TI, ARE YOU LISTENING?!?!?!?
Well, some of us are but not anyone that has to do with TIPC's. Those
folks are in Austin and aren't on any external network.
