[net.micro.atari8] Memory upgrade for 600XL

hans@umd5.UUCP (Hans Breitenlohner) (04/23/86)

I recently upgraded a 600XL from 16K to 64K ram.  Materials required:  two
64K x 4 memories and three pieces of wire (cost about $12).
Time required: about 1/2 to 1 hour.  (That does not include time to figure
out how to do it, of course).
It probably voided my warranty (:-).
If there is any interest, I will write up instructions and post them.

	Please ,do write up instructions and post them. I have wanted to do the
same thing for awhile but without schematics it was going to take more
time than I wanted to spend on it. But, if I don't have to re-invent the
wheel I won't.
	I be looking forward to seeing the instructions. Do you have schematics
of an Atari 600XL? If so I'd like to discuss the possibility of getting
a copy.
