You can certainly check it out, but I have several 3/80's, two Sparc 2's,
one 3/150, one 3/160, one Sparc Station 330, so I am familiar with what a
nvram looks like and I am telling you that the 4/110 DOES NOT HAVE A NVRAM
ON IT (at least not like the 3/80, Sparc 2, etc.).  There is a 2816
soldered to the board and a clock chip soldered as well but no NVRAM chip.
