REXCPM is an M100/T102 add on that provides p to 4 MB of switchable RAM in both OPTROM and std RAM memory. The internal RAM gets disabled in the process.
It is capable of all of REX functions plus it supports CP/M. In fact it is faster then REX.. no need for ram copies....switch instead. It is plug and play in M100, but needs a single soldered wire in T102. I'm working on T200 and NEC support also. I'm about to build a pile of them. Will update with progress.
