Yes, you can just do this, although I don't know if such an upgrade is
available, as I did it by taking the EAPC and EAFPA from a 135 and
replacing the stuff in my 115.

Now, if only you could use the slots the memory used to go in for a
fast disk controller and ethernet card (or something), things would be
nice.
