So how can one tell how much of the 64M ROM is used in the various ROM versions?
It seems there may be an advantage to removing programs you do not use and replacing them with ones that you do so that they do not need to be installed in program memory. It seems that if you remove them and do not replace them with something else, the ROM stay the same size, 64M, so there is no benefit, correct?
I guess the downside is that if a program that is put in the ROM is updated, you are stuck with the old version unless you recook the ROM.
What I do not understand is why there is no benefit to UPXing other than load speed. I seem to remember that UPXing reduced the size of the PowerPoint file when compressed on a PC, but since it was in ROM it could not be UPX'd on the 6700 so there was no increase in free program memory. But if UPXing reduced the size it took in the ROM, wouldn't that free up space in the ROM for other programs?
