2 Meg on the mother board is the key distinction between 7300 & 3b1
	1.) Rumor has it that memory on the mother board is faster 
	    (1 less wait state).
	2.) With 2 meg on the mother board the system is expandable to 4 meg.
	3.) This is the only feature of a 3b1 that is difficult/dangerous
	    to install yourself.
