I'm interested in this also. I hear the actual price list from Apple
has the motherboard rebate printed right on it. Try to get a store
to admit to it is impossible. I keep getting quotes around $1600 and
up.  I heard that if you turn in the motherboard its about half that
price $800.                        

I know it's a pretty extensive upgrade, a lot of parts are swapped,
But $1600 is a lot of money. In Fact one store told me I could sell
my SE used and buy a SE/30 cheaper with discounts than the upgrade 
would cost.

What has the rest of you heard?
