Bob, I have been wondering why someone hasn't ROMed this stuff. It's no big
deal to update an EPROM and a smart company would offer the update service real
cheap. In fact, it is probably possible for anyone (with a cheap EPROM burner
to do it). Over on the CoCo Sig we all had cuatom operating systems in ROM
prepped by the members. It's no problem and one EPROM can be used 4 or 5 times
and it will either verify or not so you don't have any worries about it going
out while in service. At this time I have an EPROM in my CoCo that has been
reburned 3 times and is still goin' strong..Dave
