Here is what I've done to my machine:  Mega 2, upgraded to 4 megs, with
a six chip EPROM TOS 1.4 set (dealer installed - honest.)  When I got the
TOS 1.4 installed - all hell broke loose - bus errors, random bombs, etc.
Spectre GCR was unuseable.  When I had the 4 meg upgrade done they aslo
replaced the two LS 373 chips with AS373 chips.  Since then the machine has
been 100% without a bus error to be seen and Spectre GCR is 100%.
