I've just checked my electron stuff and it's not from any of that but,
my plus one is running the plus two rom upgrade and I vaguely
remember the original rom was shorter so I had a look around the
images on 8bs and http://8bs.com/see/elecplus3plus1b.jpg is as far as i
can tell the chip your looking at :-)

So yes it's from a plus one!

Cheers Wookie.
