27c400's can be used too.. either as a 1MB ROM, or just burn the image into it twice and use as a 512KB ROM.


In 1994, Kickstart chips in my A4000D were ceramic body EPROMS with the UV window, programmed of course with KS 3.0, and may have been 27C400's. Made it real easy to upgrade to 3.1 :)

I have no idea why Commodore, already losing money, used IC's that were probably 10 times more expensive than the usual ROMs.
