	No, all that is required is 64k of RAM, although 128k gives you
the menu option 'Activate music'. Of course music under Ultima V requires 
either a Passport MIDI card (GS/Mac MIDI box won't work), Mockingboard or 
AE Phasor card. Which brings us to something else if anyone gets serious
about patching Ultima V for 3.5 disks or hardrives... What about adding
that software Phasor emulator for the Ensoniq chip? Just add the proper
hooks and make it a part of a patched HD installable Ultima V! Um, alright,
that's very unlikely, so what about just ripping the music code out and 
have it play as a stand-alone jubebox type thing (so all theme songs can
be dropped directly into emulator.. :)
