EPROM Pac
The EPROM Pac is a special cartridge for the Sorcerer that
was intended for power users to put their own software on a
cartridge. EPROMs are Erasable Programmable Read Only
Memory chips, which unlike regular ROMs means that the can be
erased and rewritten. The user would have to have the
means of programming the EPROMs (up to 16K) along with
the correctly compiled software. Although this
sounds a bit daunting to the regular user, the EPROM Pac was a
powerful and useful bit of hardware to those who had the ability
to use it. Originally the EPROM Pac could only use 2716
(2K) EPROMS but the manual mentions that it could be modified to
handle 2708 (1K), 2732 (4K), and 2764 (8K) EPROMs as well.
The EPROM Pac cost $49.
