Bigger EPROMs?
My Basis 108 has the Basis Monitor/FPBASIC and the Apple Monitor/Applesoft
both, spread evenly over the 6 ROMS. These ROMs are 2732 rather than 2716,
and they are controlled (chosen?) via a toggle switch on the case front.
It's a slick setup but it's got me wondering about what else could be added
if I were to use 2764 PROMs.
Would it be possible to add a text editor or even something like ADT or...
??
I don't know if this mainboard will even support 2764 PROMs but having some
extra space in ROM would be interesting if something useful could be added.
I have to say that the more I get to know this Basis computer, the more
impressed I am with it -or more specifically, I've become more impressed
with the improvements that were created by the various Basis User Groups.
Some of the most interesting ones are:
-Z80H Turbo addon
-keyboard debounce kit and improved PROM
-C00F softswitch hardware fit
-Dual Basis/Apple ROM set
-Sider patch for CP/M 3.0
-ProDos patch
These Basis User Groups really did some great stuff.
