AE ORIGINAL TRANSWARP IIE: Can faster on-board RAMs be added?



                 AE TRANSWARP IIE ACCELERATOR CARD:

       CAN FASTER ON-BOARD RAM BE ADDED TO IMPROVE PERFORMANCE?
       ========================================================

My first A2 accelerator was an "original Transwarp" for the IIe, by Applied
Engineering.   These were cleared out for $89 back in 1991.

This card has eight RAM chips if "fast ram,"   1259-12, 120 nsec speed.

I have some spare chips of 256-8  (80 nsec speed).  Could these be
added in place of the 1259-12 chips?   Any complications or 
incompatibilities?

Comments appreciated.
