A scheme just occurred to me, how you could get a cheap, do-it-yourself
upgrade and not worry about voiding the warrenty. Apple pays dealers
$100 for old 128K boards. So find a dealer who will sell you one for,
say, $150, cash, no questions asked. Buy the chips (<$180) and solder
them into the the new board. Swap it in yourself. If your mac dies,
stick your original board back in! If you socket the chips in the
upgrade board, then you can pull the 256k chips out if the board goes
bad...at worse, you'll be out your original $150.... Somebody want to
try this???
