Well, my dealer didn't give me anything that descibed the new features. All
I got were my ROMs and a photocopy of the sheet showing what changes to make
to the Mega mother board to install the six chip set into a two chip system.
And that was just a schematic drawing.

Could someone PLEASE post a copy of the documentation for TOS 1.4 to the net
or mail me a copy and I'll post it.
