[net.micro.pc] Reading 2764 EPROMs in a PC

The ROM sockets in the PCs I have looked at are 24-pin, while the 2764 is a
28-pin device.  The ROMs in the PC are the "mask ROM" variety, and have a
different pin-out from the byte wide programmable ROMs.  In particular,
according to the Tech Ref manual, pin 18, used for "output enable" in the
standard byte wide pin-out, is A11 in the PC's ROMs.  You can probably rig
something to work, but it will require some wiring and a kludge device to
take care of the top 4 pins on a 2764.
