Yes, there is a custom chip in the PMMU socket that is supposed to be a 
simple memory management unit. It comes standard on all II's.

I don't have the PMMU chip, but it ought to look very similar to the
MC68820 chip it sits near--that is, it is a black ceramic square
measuring about 3cm * 3cm. It may or may not have a gold colored metal
plate on the top. The markings should probably say something like:
"Motorola MC68851RC16".
