With one meg of memory I load all of the libraries etc at bootup. This way file access, which is the real killer here, is excellerated. As to the 40 column part, I'm paraphrasing from the manual; Supported configurations include a // or //plus in 40 column mode 1,with keyboard entry of lower case characters (single wire shift key mod) or 2, it can support console display of the full set of displayable ASCII characters(loser-case adapter). There doesn't seem to be any mention of a //+ with 80 column card, but my manual came out in 86. :
