Nope. The MK-11 memory box for the 11/70 (there are others) have the same
memory bus as the 11/750, but the MK-11 don't support 1MB boards. Believe
me, I know...
256 KB memory boards works fine in both MK-11 and 11/750 though.
And if someone *really* have 1MB boards, and an MK-11, and wants to use
them, contact me and I can start explaining what you need to do to actually
get it to work. But it requires both serious hardware hacking and software
fiddling.
Ah... unfortunate to learn. I got my start on 11/750s with 256K
boards and *thought* that 1MB boards would work with the MK11 box. I
have a couple of 11/70s that I've never tried to upgrade, so I guess
I'm just not experienced with it to know the difference.
I suppose what I'd most like to have is the 4MB cache module that I've
heard about for the 11/70 so I didn't have to worry about memory in an
MK11.
