You need to trade in your mac+ and buy an SE. Oh, I have a question - this is from SE -> SE/x (sorry, SE/30 :-) Does it involve a board swap or do they just replace chips? If you had a 3rd-party memory upgrade, can you still upgrade to an SE/30? Are they going to give you your old SIMMs back or will you end up with 1 Megabyte? The reason I asked is that if you had a Mac128 3rd-party memory upgrade to 512K, Apple would treat it as Mac128K (hence rip-off your chips).. If they'll give me 1 Meg back for my 2.5 Meg 3rd-party upgrade, can I "downgrade" my 2.5 Meg back to 1 Meg (put back the old SIMMs and solder the resistor)?? Pai
