How to get the Firmware Number ?
--------------------------------
Wenn === How to get the Firmware Number? === When you are in the main Menu (text editor, calculater, calender) push the
secret-button and the system-settings menu appears, the version number
will be shown in the first line of the sceen. I have a german NC100 and the
firmware number is v1.06.
=== PCMCIA Memory Cards-------------------===
A battery buffered PCMCIA SRAM-Memory Card will preserve you from data loss
allows you to create a file with BBC-BASIC bigger than 1024 bytes. This is
because BBC-BASIC allocates all available memory on startup except 1024
bytes. The maxinun sice maximum size to use with the NC100 is up to 1M byte.
