Emax

I just opened up my Emax II rack unit to check the memory configuration (I 
was "sold" an 8MB unit that appears to be a 4MB unit), and it appears that 
all of the necessary chips are there to make it an 8MB unit... I pulled the 
memory expansion info from Emulator Archive, and it appears that the work was 
done. The only thing that wasn't done was a clipping of the 5 and 7 MB 
resistors on the daughterboard. I don't want to kill my unit by clipping 
these, but I can only think that this was not done when it was upgraded. When 
I look at the daughterboard, all of the chip sockets are occupied. When 
upgrading, are you supposed to remove those and install new ones?

Help...

It might appear to be a 4M unit because the "free memory" display reads in
samples rather than bytes.
In other words, it's showing 4M *words* rather than 8M *bytes*.
