That has been done... I believe what you do is put a RAM in the Option
ROM socket and bring out the necessary signals (/WE I think). Also the
NEC 8201A and NEC 8300 are able to switch to all RAM mode with a short
program.

There was at some point in time a device called a PIC Disk that
allowed you to run CP/M on the Model 100. It connected to the bus
expansion port underneath the M100.

Unfortunately we haven't been able to find anyone with a real live one
and I failed to track down the creator.
