	Are you sure you are looking in the right spot? On my
3000 there is this area with a "bundle" of something or other
(proms?) stuck in what appear to be sockets. Those are the magic
glue that allow the ROM to be loaded off disk. I can't actually
SEE the sockets themselves, so I'm wondering what you're looking
at.
