[Coco] 26-3124 MPI

Thanks for the advice. It seems like I will be better of using it with my coco2 for now. I definitely don't want to take a chance with my coco3

There are two ways to go at this, one - and probably the cleanest - is to
redo the upgrade board that Radio Shack installed on the 3124 MPIs. Details
of the schematic and how-to proceed can be found at:

A revision to that process has the required logic chip piggy-backed on
another inside the MPI:

Either way, the upgrade is not for a tender foot on electronics tinkering
skills ;-)
