Well I got it and had to open it up to see the upgrade board and it was in there, but it wasn't plugged in to the expansion slot! I also accidentally snapped the tail end off of the CRT unplugging the power connections from the motherboard because they were on so tight. Doh! On the bright side it looks like the RAM was upgraded because the resistors behind the RAM bank are cut off. I don't know which version the motherboard is, high density or low density. Probably low density because the case doesn't say FDHD on it but some people do swap the boards or just the ROMs so who knows? Is there a way to know for sure whether they have the high density ROMs or not? I have the drive cage pulled and am going to try swapping it into another SE I have along with the 020 upgrade board. I went looking for a 25 mhz 68882 FPU because the upgrade doesn't have one and the prices are just ridiculous when you can find one. It's those damn Amiga users driving the prices up, I know it is. :p
