Re: ZipGS 8/16 Upgrade

	What you wanna do, since I assume you have 4 8/32k 15 or 20ns
SRAMs (actually the time doesn't matter TOO much), is cut the original
sockets in half; you can just do this by talkign a soldering iron, then
melting the plastic which "holds each single row socket together".
Therefore your sockets should look like this now:
|   ||   ||   ||   |
|   ||   ||   ||   |
|   ||   ||   ||   |
	From there, you need to add 4 more single row sockets INBETWEEN
the original "fat" ones. Hope you solder well, 'cuz those dots on the back
are really damn small.
	Then put the chips in "every other" socket. Like this: (# represents
	the SRAM chip)

|#  ||#  ||#  ||#  |
|#  ||#  ||#  ||#  |
|#  ||#  ||#  ||#  |

	From there, it should work, if everything got soldered OK...
	I just got mine done like this, and thanx to David Huang (who
	re-soldered the pins, and fixed someof TC-Wilson's shitty-lame
	sockets which didn't even go thru to the back of the card) for
	fixing it :)
