Thanks everyone,
It looks like the upgrade is dead simple according to everyone here and the 
"Tandy's Little wonder" book, But I just want to confirm and check.
I have opened it up and the 2 RAM chips are socketed between the upgrade pin 
outs.
As I understand it, I can take 2 of the 4464 Ram chips that I pulled out of 
my CoCo 3 for the 512K upgrade from Cloud 9, and replace those.
I then just put a drop of solder across the jumper Pad, and that's it.
it seems too bloody simple, I don't have to cut resistors or run a wire 
across them?
-thanks

Yes, it is that simple!  Radio Shack/Tandy had it down to cheap and simple 
by the late CoCo 2s.
