Kevin,
From everything I've read, this is not a "simple" installation. Personally,
I'm a candy-* when it comes to hardware, so I let my dealer's tech install it.
The peace-of-mind was important to me. I also managed to work out the timing
so I could have it done while I was out of town anyway. Didn't lose any time
with the machine.
As far as the benefits go, it is nice not having to think about CHIP memory
usage as much while I'm working. The other day, I needed to play around with
some sampled sounds, using software that insisted that the samples be in CHIP.
I didn't even think about it at first, but I was working with 800K samples
<grin>. Guess I couldn't have done that before.
All in all, it was worth the cost of the upgrade (IMHO).
Hope this helps….BobR
