Re: Zip Chip programming info / disk image?



MJD: The TW I and TW II were completely different beasts.  The TW I was
essentially an Apple IIe on a card.  It had 256k of DRAM where it used
the first bank for shadow ROM, the second & third served as main and
aux memory and ther remaining 64k was extended aux memory.  The TW II
was a cache based accelerator with minimal RAM.

Rich: Yes, this is entirely possible.  You may need faster DRAM, and a
faster 65c02, but it'll do the job.  Its something I wanted to play
with but never got around to it.  The same should work for other cards
like the MCT SpeedDemon and the Titan Accelerator IIe, however I'd
expect the best results from the TransWarp due to it being the newest
of these accelerators thus using faster logic.  The TransWarp was also
the most transparent of all of these cards.
