--------------------------
Yes, but the address will have been valid for some time by the time /CS goes
low after the delays in the CPU and PAL.

IMHO the issue (if any of this is indeed an issue) is that a 250ns 2364 has
an address access time of 250ns but a CS access time of *only 100ns*,
whereas a 250ns 27Cxxx also has a 250ns address access time but a CE access
time equal to tACC, i.e. *250ns*, so it seems to me that keeping /CE low and
using /OE with its 50ns delay would be preferable and on the safe side.
