ah, that makes sense.  worthless indeed, particularly as the rom that's in it is 
socketed and could easily be replaced if i wanted to (since it has 1m and is 
upgradable to 2m, the existing 1m could be put in one larger (e)eprom, since the 
socket has 2 extra pins presumably for the next larger size chips).  too bad they 
deliberately hosed the memory map, it would be rather nice to have more than 10m, but 
then again i'm sure it will suffice for what i'm likely to use it for.  still, there 
are 2 address lines that are apparently not connected to anything, it just might be 
possible to hack more ram in, then again the rom might not know what to do with it and 
the memory map might get odd.  i might even wind up summing the 3 video signals and 
driving a gray scale monitor, i wonder if it could be stuffed into a plus or se/se/30 
mac without too much pain and suffering.
