Warranty-Voiding fun!

I dunno if that thread directly answers his question... but it is soldered onto the board. Most mass-produced things are. Still, MM007's idea isn't too bad of one... you could still use a couple rows of ribbon cable, make the adapter and then have the other end wire all lined up to where the ROM was. (Or use our friend hot glue to make a "ribbon" cable :P
