ZX81 and 6116

That's certainly a horse of a different color. So the objective was to
replace a set of 4116's with a single 6116? That would reduce the available
RAM from 16KB to 2KB. Is that what you wanted? It would be dirt-simple
simply to put a 62512 on a business-card-sized daughterboard with the Z-80
and, say, a PAL or a little MSI/SSI logic, in order to fill the memory map
with SRAM and disable it wherever a memory-mapped peripheral or other memory
lived. Moreover, it would be quite reasonable to copy the content of any
EPROM/ROM device into the SRAM and be done with it, i.e disable the ROM.

Does that seem at all interesting?
