Big Memory Boards
by ?
From: ADAM'S ALIVE
DECEMBER 1987
Orphanware has been a long supporter of the ADAM b manufacturing high
quality memory Lards, printer interfaces, and software. Now, Orphanware
released three versions of BIG memory boards. These are128K, 256K, 512K.
At long last, we ADAM owners can have as much memory as the BIG BOYS.
In order to use these new boards, you must have the orphanware printer
interface, or you must also purchase an addresser ($17.50). If you
already have an Orphanware interface, you need to send it to us so We
can Attach the addresser wire from the memory board onto your interface.
If you don't have an interface you can order a BIG memory board already
attached to the required addresser board.
What advantage are these boards to you? You can use these boards as
LARGE RAM DISKS under CP/M and SmartBASIC. Included with each board is
the proper software to use them under CP/M. To use them under
SmartBASIC, a ram disk program is -required (such as RAMDSK-256 from
Walters Software Co., or Megadisk from Digital Express.
When using these boards as a high speed ram disk, you won't believe how
fast you can load from your expansion board. It just has to be seen to
be believed. I wouldn't do without mine.
Our 256K board was very easy to install, and has been used without a
glitch. If you want more memory, we highly recommend these boards from
Orphanware.
RATING - A+
