Re: NTLK 2100 memory heaps and storage

So, I've got a question then.
When I send my Newt to the DR for the upgrade...do I
then need to find and load the new system software?
Will it work on the 2000 ROMS? Can I do it NOW before
I send it to the Doc? And where can I get it when I
get my Newt back?
Thanks
