Has anyone considered the following:
Build a piggyback board (a la Airco board), that will pass all references to
the lower 1MB to the ST's motherboard, and reroute references to the next 
3 MB. Then it would be possible to enlarge the memory of the ST without
discarding the memory that is already present.
I know that the extra chips might give a problem with the power supply.
Is this feasible?? Or is it impossible due to timing problems?
