[comp.sys.atari.st] And yet more 520ST info wanted

A coupla weeks ago, I got a 520 STfm, and after using it, Ive more questions
to ask about it...

I know the memory can be upgraded, people have told me so, and I also 
opened up the case, and saw an unpopulated bank of memory. What I need
to know is the value of the caps that I also need to add, so I can 
populate this bank with the 256k chips.

On that same note, Ive heard that you can get 4mb of RAM, but I dont 
quite see how. There are no SIMMs or SIPP sockets to hold the larger
memory modules. 

Anyways. I found out that the version of TOS I have is 1.0. I guess
that this is stored in the ROM. Anyway of upgrading to 1.4? Also,
what is the difference between 1.0 and 1.4? Any benifit of upgrading?
And since its on my mind :-) Just what does TOS stand for anyways?

Thanx, even tho Im sure that Ive repeated questions thats been asked
many times
