Now this friend of mine has got a set of Paradise chips but he doesn't know where to put them! More specifically, there seems to be 4 sockets for chips (named U17, U27, U37 and U47) and in U27 there's now a chip labeled 92560-0061 6181028 8534 CAA and the chip in U47 is labeled 92560-0062 6181029 8520 CAA. Does someone out there in netland know how these should be replaced with the Paradise chips? Thanx in advance! Ulf Emanuelson SVAEPIZ@EVA.SLU.SE
