willing to do work on classic (read not easily replacable) machines?
Specifically I'm interested in adding SOJ RAM to some proprietary SGI SIMMS,
and possibly SOJ RAM to a SPARCBook2 CPU board. The chip spacing is such
that a soldering iron is not a viable alternative.
Thanks!

It might be a good idea to figure out if the work will require a hot air
type system, or a really good station with SMT sized tips.

Hot air. The chips are close enought together that I was amazed that there
weren't any solder bridges from chip to chip! I don't think it would be
possible to hit the contact point of the lead with a tip thin enough to fit
in between.
