At the front on the left hand side, under the right edge of the floppy
drive. I spotted it when I fitted my RO3.1 ROMs, as I had to remove
the backplane and disk drives to get to the front end of the old chips
to remove them.

The ARM3 is to the right of centre at the front, and there is an empty
socket of the same size on the left hand side.

>mind you I wasn't looking that hard

Well, it's quite well hidden from the casual observer.
