Are there RAM expansions out there that will bring the XEGS to at least 128K that will work with the MyIDE interface? I am currently in talks with Benjamin Heckendorn to produce a 2nd Atari XE laptop, but I wanted to beef up the memory a bit, and wondered if this would cause problems that we needed to be aware of?

Naah. The MyIDE shouldnt be effected by, or effect any sort of extended ram scheme I can imagine on an ATARI 8-bit.

Contact Mathias Von Nisselroy about his XEGS ram expansion. Hes got a fully functional design, and is well aware of the hardware specifics involved.

It's Mathy van Nisselroy. You can read an article about my 1MB XEGS expansion here and check out the schematic here. (the doc's aren't finished)
