Hey, like I said, they didn't even bother desoldering the chip from the
computer!  Besides, in the Stealth computer case, there was no EPROM 
there to desolder in the first place.  The only way to modify one of 
those computers would be to put the processor in expanded mode and add
an external EPROM raft of some sort.
