I was hoping to do that with a number of the old carts I have
but attempts to remove the old chip usually results in some
of the lans lifting making the card unusable. I suspect they
were made as cheaply as possible and there was never any thought
to re-purposing of them in the future. :-) or in my case :-(
I am considering striping the boards and just running little
pieces of wirewrap wire between an EPROM Socket and the fingers.
But new boards would eliminate the need for that. :-)
