Sorry I don't have a digital camera at the moment, the card was
branded Transcend, it started life as 8mb but had the pads for 8 more
chips, it was a simple matter to fit the extra chips (and de-coupling
capacitors).
once re-built with EDO (all I could get at the time) it worked fine
provided I only used the apple 4Mb card, with the 8Mb card I got
memory errors, I re-built the card yesterday with the correct FPM
chips and now my 1400 has 64Mb of ram and it works fine.
unfortunately the Japanese site only appears to have a photo of the
hacked card and no other details, if I can find out more then I will
post it here.
Ben.
