Minimum Development Configuration
Note that the following paragraphs apply to the standard configuration for the
6200 or 6300 Series computer; but keep in mind that both of these computers
can be configured to meet your specific needs. For example, additional RAM can
be obtained to bring the total RAM up to the maximum capability.
The following constitutes the configuration items needed for a minimum
development, except for items 4 and 5, which are only useful if you do not have a
docking station.

paragraph).
2. DOS or Windows toolkit.
3. Main and backup batteries; at least one of each.
4. One 2 MB or 4 MB SRAM card. You need at least one 2 MB SRAM card,
