Re: how much flash rom do i have??
With AMS 2 you get around 700 K of Archive space. AMS 1 is larger so it's a
little less. Plus AMS 1 didn't account for Flash Applications. HW1 89's
split that 700K into 350 K archive and 350 K that only Flash Apps can go in.
With HW2 the entire 700 K is available for either.
By the way, VTI actually emulates HW1, even though the about screen says
HW2, and that Street Fighter Zip file isn't all files that you send to the
calculator.
