Keep in mind that this will also likely change the model number that the
3000 reports to applications. This could blow third-party software dead
because some of them include the model number in the license-enabling hash
algorithm (where you call them with the model number and package ID and they
give you a long key to put in a file). One of ours went from a 989-300 to a
989-400 when we added a processor.
