- As far as I know, what you are reffering to is upgraded video. The 128D
- and the last of the flat 128s had 64k RAM for the 80 col display, while
- the standard was 16k. Not a big deal unless you are into graphics (with
- the 64k, the 128 can pull off VGAA quality displays).
-
- The standard chips are 4416's...replace with 4464 or equivalent.
- Naturally, these chips are soldered in.
