Bummer. That's an extra part needed. I thought I'd been reading
that the slot is for CF cards, but I guess I'm wrong. In that case,
it might be wise to also check for a PCMCIA-based memory card
instead. Ofcourse with my luck there's plenty available but maybe
can't be booted from.

So tell me more about your CoCo emulation in the Compaq unit so I can
at least know that Keil's or JV's emulator will run at a decent speed
or faster, etc. Will it run the JV CoCo 3 emulator? Did you ever
boot into a NitrOS-9 .dsk image.

Thanks for the info.
