This is the first time I've heard this - rather the opposite (if you are upgrading an SE, the SE/30 upgrade is better than most accelerators because SCSI is faster). I used to own an SE/30, and I wouldn't take an SE instead unless money was really tight. It certainly seemed at least as fast as an equivalent IIx/IIcx, if not faster because it didn't have to talk NuBus to draw the screen. Can you substantiate this claim?
