What is this mystery famous jumper?? Is it one of those `Do Not Use` ones??

How exciting, do tell...


In the A4000, Commodore planned to add the ability to use up to 8MB CHIP RAM, instead of 2.. They implemented a jumper which allowed you to switch between 2 and 8MB, depending on wich SIMM you had installed.. But it didnt do anything when the machine was completed..

And that is where that quote originates from, if I´m not mistaken..  :-)
