[Coco] The Ebay MPI auction heartbeat...

[K. Pruitt]

Yeah, the 26-3024 model Multi-pak interface (the larger and older greys and 
whites) works with the Coco 3, but should have the PAL chip upgraded for 
full compatibility. This applies to the newer and smaller 26-3124 multi-pak 
as well.  There can be memory overlap if the PAL chip of any model of 
multi-pak hasn't been upgraded.

The upgrade of the 26-3024 is simplistic.  You unplug one socketed chip and 
replace it with a new chip.  The PAL upgrade is available from Cloud9. I 
just upgraded mine this past week.  (Thank you Mark!).

The upgrade for the 26-3124 is more complex and expensive but Cloud9 will 
perform the upgrade for you.

And of course a new MPI is being designed by one of the list members as we 
speak.  I'm pretty excited about that.
