Gee Rick, you're nicer than I am. I'da said, "If you cannot tell the 68000 CPU
from a ROM chip you are far far better off having a competant dealer replace
the ROM. (On another paw, though, I might be a bit nervous about most dealers;
but, that is another issue, nie? Perhaps a good solution is to find a local
hardware hacker to do the job if the local dealer is not adequate.)
