I'll never admit it, but you may be right. <grumble>
Ok, why not design a new RAM board with 2Mb and a 68000? The RAM has to be 16-
bit for the GIME anyway, and if we memory map the 68k, we could even run OSk in
a NitrOS-9 window.
I probably have no idea what I'm talking about, but it sounds good. :)
