However, there are pin headers P207, P208, P209 and P210 next to the CPU, originally used to connect the memory daughterboard or a test system, that make it easy to add a small custom piggyback board with a decoder and a more modern E(E)PROM.  An 8k×8 chip (2764, 2864) is sufficient to hold the 6kB needed for the DF2.  As a bonus, this upgrades a DF1 to a DF2 if the missing front panel key is added as well (pads are present on the PCB).  The stock ROM chips are removed.
