My bad, I meant the Data bus was split. Addressing is a different story.

That's interesting, got pics of the box to share? I snag every eBay pic available, even when the links are disabled I just rip 'em out of the data folders in the saved pages ;)

I've got a relatively hard to find NewerTECH ViewPOWR 1400/16. It's large enough that it blocks one of the Memory Slots (almost certainly the factory slot) reducing maximum RAM config to 48MB. I wasn't very happy when I read the manual. For obvious reasons they omitted mentioning it on the box, so I couldn't determine that in the listing's pics. It will be installed in Beater, my fugly/stuffed to the gills 1400c/G3. Once I have an SSD in there for VM @ Silicon Disk access times, Beater will be stuffed in a bit different config with 16bit up to 16" and 8bit up to TPD resolutions available on the external display.

The noggin hasn't yet developed a memory leak, but access times have been erratic from birth and data integrity is prone to a normal distribution of parity errors. So when I say that I'm going by memory,ISTR, IIRC or YMMV, take the warning seriously. ;D
