Umm, the RamFactor wasn't the problem (point in fact, it was MY old 
ramfactor card that I had in my GS and it DID work with a RamFast) - it's 
the //e zip chip (TOTALY unable to DMA, and the RamFast won't shut DMA 
off).

Oh yes, he did tell Drew about it... and he tried using it without it. 
(hell, he tried it stripped to nothing but the Zip//e and RamFast rev C - 
still roached)
