I am posting this for a friend and need an answer as soon as possible.

My friend has an IBM-PC Jr. and is looking to add on a 512K expansion
board.  There are two possibilities that my friend knows of -- Quadram
and Tecmar-Vawe(?).  (Are there others?)  Unfortunately, the sales
people can't tell my friend which is more suitable, which works better,
which is the best value for the money.  They aren't even sure if either
of these expansions are compatible with the PC Jr.!

So, what do you recommend?  Has anyone had any experience with either
of these expansions, or know of someone who has?  Are there any other
options?

Please reply A.S.A.P.

Thank you.
