You basically go in and solder extra chips onto the motherboard and end up with an extra 512K of addmemable memory. It is also nice because the memory is not activated unless you use addmem so you can still bring the machine up in a stock configuration. I did it to my 1000 a year ago and it works fine. Cost me about 75$ in chips. I forget which issue of Amazing it appeared in but if you are interested I can look it up.
