Indeed though I have seen a fair number that have solder pad jumpers, 
that can be changed using a soldering iron and a blob of solder.

Something that does sometimes need changing also (though not on the CoCo 
or Dragon), is the function of pin 34, some systems need this to be 
ready, whereas on PC drives it is generally disk change, I've also seen 
pad jumpers for this too.

Cheers.
