Thanks for this idea. I haven't read the doscs I have about DMA yet so I
have to find out which lines are needed to transfer data.

Of course, the 8237 provides the addresslines. I completely forgot. But if
so, why "tristating" the 6522 ?

But I'm still thinking about adding an 8237 (optional) as I can imagine that
there are datatransfers which need a bigger throughput the a 6510/8502 can
provide.
