Yes, I have done it. You basically change the RAM chip. I forget, was it
a 1K chip to a 2K chip, or 2K chip to an 8K chip? This was 3 years ago. You
also have to change one of the wire jumpers. If you are REALLY interested,
I could look it up. Basically, just looking at the RAM, together with
a memory data book, figure out which jumper brings the extra address lines
to the chip.
