Al Boyanich –
Fiddly to get working but works extremely well on my v2 NuXT computer from Monotech. Brilliant for running norton cache 2 (ncache2.exe), and having a good size disk cache for larger 2gb MessyDOS partitions. Also brilliant for 4DOS.COM and works with EMS paging to shove the 261kb shell up into EMS ram. Fast also. Good programming guide and supports 64k EMS protocol. Not just 4k and 8k windows.
Cons: I dearly wish there was at *least* a 4mb version or better 8-16mb. I definitely have a use for it and don’t want to have multiple cards as I don’t have the free slots. Please bring out a much bigger one!!! 🙂 I and several others would definitely love to buy it.
Love the work though! Thanks!
