That's it, my first attempt at a CRAY memory card. Open it for more info. (Sorry for seemingly bumping it daily ... I'm just tweaking)

    @tothemyers: okay, got it @camtech56: what the heck do you mean by that? first of all, 2 ^ 8 = 256, not 511; but, as I mentioned multiple times, you use 10 bits to address 1024 bytes (and a byte is 8 bits)

    @LBPHacker I know, that's why I added another comment to show I kinda mangled that. When I first read the text in your save, I thought it said "10-bit values and 10-bit addresses" instead of 8-bit values. That and the fact that I forgot a Kilobyte has 1024 bytes... I made that comment late at night, I wasn't quite thinking straight. Sorry.

    8-bit max # = 511

    @tothemyers: 100 bytes of 10-bit values? Nope ... 1024 bytes of 8-bit values. 10 bits are used to address 1024 bytes, think about it. @ArkaM: Use it wherever you want, and it means 1024 bytes, hence the "i" between "K" and "B".
