RasterOps 8L upgraded to 24L in the field

Thanks to an assist from @eharmon, my IIcx's Nubus RasterOps 8L video card is now a Nubus RasterOps 24L video card. Using a blank EEPROM left over from that IIcx's boot ROM repairs and a ROM dump eharmon had in his library, the VRAMs I found to fully populate my old 8L now allow it to show not just 256, but Millions of colors at 1024x768@60.

If you have an 8L, I can point you at my source for the funky ZIP SRAMs to max out your card, and share the ROM with you.

( And yes: I'll tape over the new EEPROM's UV window in a minute 🕶️ )
