[comp.sys.tandy] 3000 NL/HL Memory Upgrade

	I, too, have been trying to figure this out.  I would
	like to take my machine up to 640K.  I have found two
	possibilities:

	1.  Buy the 128K expansion kit from Tandy (~$75) which
	mounts in those 6 available sockets on the motherboard.
	Be aware that if you ever expand >640K, this 128K will
	be accessable in only two other memory configurations.

	2.  Buy the dedicated memory board which fits in the
	dedicated memory bus slot and move the 512K from the
	MB to this board, then add on 512K to this board for
	1Meg total.  (Skip 640K).  This configuration will "make"
	the memory faster.

	If left up to me, I will skip the 128K expansion and go
	right to 1Meg, because the 6-chip arrangement sounds a 
	little hokey to me.  Unfortunately, this choice is up
	to my financial advisor (father)... :-)
