hmmm... When I upgraded my 345, I ordered the bootrom that Dave
mentioned... it was a J-lead (can't remember the right name for
the packaging) part. However, when I upgraded my 400s, the part I
used was a 40pin dip 2MB part. (27c022 I think)... I have here
somewhere a file of S-records for that part that I saved "just in
case" I ever needed it. I believe someone has already taken the
Srecords and toasted a PROM of their own to upgrade their 400.
