Does anybody have any experience with the 'Memory Master IIe 128K RAM card
from Applied Engineering (of Carlton Texas).  I am seriously considering
buying this card, since it costs less than the Apple extended 80 column card
and provides more memory and is billed as being fully compatible with the
Apple card. (It uses the same kludge of putting the extra 40 columns in the
high bank.  Oh well! You can't have everything!)  Pleas tell me if you have
any experiences, either good or bad.

Also, does anybody have any suggestions for a good serial interface card.
It must provide (at least optionally) a fully transparent 8 bit data connection
to an RS232 interface at 300 and 1200 baud, and (again, at least optionally)
provide an interrupt to tell when it has a character (on input) or needs one
(on output).  That doesn't sound like much, but I hear tell that there are
a lot that don't.

Please reply by mail and I will post a summary, if there is interest.

Thanks in advance!
