| It seems to me that there are 2 questions here, and perhaps a bit of
| confusion...
|
| 1. Is it legal to upgrade (no)
|
| 2. Is it physically possible to upgrade (don't know)
|
| Of course, just because it is possible, doesn't make it legal. I think the
| answers thus far have to do with legality, not possibilities.
