I have here a Suntek extended (?) memory board, perhaps called Memory Plus AT,
that supposedly came out of an Acer 286.  Sadly, there's no manual or other 
doc to be found.  Pleeeeeze, if somebody has the same board and can give me 
a clue how to configure it, I'd GREATLY appreciate it!

Description:  16-bit board, 4 banks for DIPs arranged horizontally starting
from top left (bank 0 at top, 18 sockets per bank), with the other circuitry
covering the rightmost third of the board.  There are two sets of dip switches
(8 settings each) labeled SW1 and SW2 (of course).  There is an FCC label
on the rear of the board which says, "Suntek Information System Inc.  FCC ID: 
FK3459 MEMPLUSAT)", plus a probable serial number (PA603210).  A label on the
front says "MEMOPLUS A".  Several PALs are also labeled "Suntek" plus a number.

The board currently has 3 banks populated (1.5MB total), but the configuration
is wrong somehow.  If anybody has documentation or has a working version of
this board, please drop me some email (I have trouble keeping up with
the newsgroup).  If you have an Acer 286 around with a memory board, it could
potentially be the same or similar board.   Thanks a bunch in advance.
