You guys may be dismayed, but I believe my SE/30 *is* the Classic with '030.
As the next 12 to 18 months go by, you'll find eventually the entire Apple
line-up shift down in price while maintaining the performance. Probably in 
two years' time, the SE/30 will cost as much as the Classic today. That means
the SE/30 will be the next Classic. Do not forget there will always be, in
the forseeable future, a Mac in the Classic shape. Altho' I really *love* my
SE/30, it will be replaced by a Mac IIsi (I need the colour!) and I will
miss my SE/30 at least until the '030 portable comes out later in the year!!
