Is there any way to use the extra space for memory chips on the 6A motherboards? Every time I run low I hear this taunting chuckle from within my 500's case, and I'm getting sick of it. I've been told "yes, but we can't tell you how" (from a Commodore employee, naturally), "it's impossible to use them," "it's impossible to use them with an A501," and "they're there for future use, but Commodore doesn't want you to like your 500 until it's completely obsolete." Which of these if any is correct? It just grates to have 1.5M 25 bucks away, obviating the need for expansion devices that either cost too much or are more than I need, and not be able to touch it. If anyone *does* know the purpose of these slots, or at least how to put them to use, please let me in on the secret. If it matters, I've done the mod to give me a meg of chip RAM. Thanks, John
