I couldn't find any evidence that the decoding logic in the 6703 had ever been fully documented. It's possible that /EXRAM may be active up to $3FFF. But even if it does, what then? I suspect even the MAX Basic ROM does not intelligently probe for usable memory and the extra 2k of RAM is hardcoded. So yes, we could probably fix the ROM to use the extra RAM but I have no intention of typing in 32k BASIC programs on a MAX keyboard anytime soon. :-) Rob Message was sent through the cbm-hackers mailing listReceived on 2013-10-20 14:00:04
