1) As already said in other mail, with 4 MHz the read/write signals are too 
short IMHO. But I realy honnestly hope that I am wrong.

2) A second look at fig 12: what about the size of the datawindows

3) And if the above doesn't matter, how are you able to program the 8237 so 
that that particular step happens exactly at the right point and not in the 
middle of the low half of CLK2?

Only discouraging for the moment I fear :(
