 C364 ROM size
I read on our page here that it was claimed in the publication that the 364 could manage 48K of ROM. Is it correct? I thought that 32K was the maximum size.

 Re: C364 ROM size
It is not exactly clear what that document refers to. A Plus/4 computer can handle built-in BASIC ROM (low 16kB) and KERNAL ROM (high 16kB), internal expansion ROM (low 16kB and high 16kB), external ROM expansion 1 (low 16kB and high 16kB) and external ROM expansion 2 (low 16kB and high 16kB). That's altogether 128 kB. Probably it was based on some preliminary design, or it was meant as an early ad flyer.

it could be that 16kextra is the memory reserved for direct use by the speech synthesizer
