Sure with no problems for almost two years.  I'd suggest while you're in there
to do the PAL grounding modification, it can't hurt and may help things some...
I'm using CMI's Kickstart Eliminator and the Amazing Computing 512K piggyback
hack with the extra circuitry that holds off the memory until after the disk is
accessed.  Works like a charm and allows 1.25 Meg internally at little cost.

BTW, does anyone know if Creative Microsystems has Kickstart 1.3 available for
the Kickstart Eliminator yet?  I wouldn't recommend buying it if they don't,
but otherwise would recommmend it highly.
