[Coco] Attempting to upgrade a CoCo2

[Al Hartman]

I have some original Tandy Masked ROMs if anybody would rather have those.

But, burning an EPROM IS faster. I believe those chips will work fine.

Hi Everyone. I recently got my paws on a CoCo2 16k 26-3134. I'm going to
hunt down a 2716 Eprom and program it with ECB tomorrow. I'm lucky in the
fact that I have a surplus company around the corner from with with parts of
all kinds. Question I have is about the RAM upgrade. The eight RAM chips are
8040517's and from what I understand, I have to replace them with 4164 chips
of 200 ns or better access time, and to solder a wire between the two pads
labeled J1. I'm assuming that all eight chips need to match speed wise. I
did a search on Ebay and see lots of them listed. I have my eye on these
'NEC Dynamic RAM Memory 64K x 1-Bit UPD4164C-15'. Would those work? And am I
barking up the right tree so far? :D

Thanks,

Mike
