Subj: WP2-RAM
I am attempting to connect some sort of ram device to the card slot on the side of the WP-2. I know there is a 32k card that RS sells for about $119. But I have never heard of any 3rd party cards, or ways of accessing that port. I also believe that Tandy tried to establish it as platform for software on ROM to be run on the WP-2. Since there are 128k chips available for the internal 32k RAM slot. I wonder if there is a card compatable with the male 38pin connector on the side. It seems to be vaguely similar to the PCMCIA card slots. Would one of those cards work by some off chance. How about breaking out a cable and attaching some left over sims to a hard wired edge connector. I really don't need the RAM, because, I use WP-2 DOS to save all my files. But I just like making things work in ways the designers never intended. Let me know what you know. -ADW
