Emax

My expanded EMAX actually only has a portion of the sockets filled on the main board.  I believe the writeup on emulator archive goes through why in more detail.  I believe someone else stated that the PALs are different on the models with the board installed.  The upgrade kit inventory shows these PAL chips in there, so that makes sense.

I have 4 already (16 chips) and there are 32 spaces available.  Does anyone think that actually soldering in another 16 sockets would be the same as adding an expansion board?
