I have gotten a few responses to my earlier post about the numbers
for the new chips (Thanks Dave). I think a few people mis-understood my
question (actually made it harder than it was). While I now know how to
tell which chips are in my machine by software (:-) I will not be
installing these chips in my computer as I walk from booth to booth at the
show. Are there any unique numbers indicating the new OFFICIAL release
version of both chips printed on the outside of the chips. Is this the
8732A chip?
