Re: WANTED: Your original 65816

[jdb8042@blkbox (John D. Baker)]

I know exactly what I'm talking about.  I've seen a 65816-4 (took the cover
off a IIgs and looked because I was skeptical to begin with) and it was
most definitely a 40-pin DIP (later models of IIgs may have used one that
came in a different package and I can't really vouch for what the acclerator
boards use) and while some pins have been re-assigned, those are
are not connected in the //e anyway.

I've got two separate reports from people who installed ZIP GS's in
their IIgs and just popped their spare '816 into a //c or a //e 
(and had it work flawlessly).

I'll go dig up the mail I received when I asked about '802s in
this group a few months ago and post it for your education.
Using the old '816 was one of the first things suggested over
buying an '802.
