Hardly.
Slot 1:serial printer port,
Slot 2:serial modem port,
Slot 3:80 Column video/64K aux ram,
Slot 4:Ram card, now CFFA2C,
Slot 5:External Drive port,
Slot 6:Internal Drive port, cabled to outside,
Slot 7:Game/Mouse port.

Space left by moving Internal Drive
to outside can be used to install a
3.5" IDE hard drive instead of CF card
adapter and CF card.

This is the plan, and so far, after much
discussion, will be how it will be. I'd
like to add the RAM to it, but to keep cost
to a minimum we have decided to only put in
the drive controller, since it's going to
be in the physical space that the RAM card
would take up. I'll bring it up again and
see what we can do. Maybe a later revision.
