Emax

A memory upgrade indeed also required sometimes the replacement of the PAL.

But... I think the two most common situations today are:
1/ Someone's Emax-II has the expanded memory board with correct RAM and PAL but for some reason lost the eeprom data
2/ Someone found a second hand or NOS Emax-II memory expansion board for the Emax-II but no installation disk (or a used one) is provided.

I guess in both cases the PALs are already OK because - if I understand it correctly - these PALs are seated on the memory expansion board itself, right ?

If a new memory expansion board has to be developed from scratch, then we would also need the PALs for sure.

Or am I overlooking something ?
