   I recently read that Helios offers a RAM upgrade that does not
   require soldering to the CPU, hence it does not invalidate the Sun
   warranty or service contract.

It's the other way around: Helios is the only memory upgrade that I know
of that requires soldered modifications to the 3/50 board, rendering Sun
unwilling to service it if it breaks.
