No one is arguing that, you will notice that people generally want
to see pictures and/or schematics before they will be willing to
send money for something.

Its a duplicate of the memory chip which is quite small.  It would
be quite easy to piggyback a seond chip on to the first one.

I don't know, this is the first I have heard of the resistors.  I have
been planning on purchasing the chip for quite a while (just never
seem to get around to it).  However, I would like to see some detailed
installation instructions and pictures first.  

I'm just curious why no one said anything about this when he announced
the internal expansion mod a few months ago.

How many have been sold, and how many calcs have been upgraded
with this?
