It may be possible to do it, but I don't know how easy it would be nor
how wonderful the gain would be.  the 65x architechture likes 64k banks,
and having a cache equal to one bank of memory isn't that bad.

besides, if you install the 64k cache and put a split-cache modification on
it, you should be well set for most applications (lightning fast).



That said, who knows where i can get a 64k cache for my Zip GSX? (8k currently)
