I think that there is some confusion here....Note the four socketed DIPs next to the SIMM sockets. We can assume that the IIx layout is similar, because the ROMs were sold as an of…
I think that there is some confusion here.
The early Mac models have ROMs that are in a DIP package. Examples: 128K/512K, 512Ke/Plus, SE and SE FD/HD. Later Macs (SE/30 and IIfx) …

As LCGuy relates, in addition to insertion of the replacememt ROM chips:

Yeah, as a part of the Mac II FDHD upgrade you do need IIx ROMs. I don't think the SWIM controller will fully function without it, as the Mac II ROMs most likely don't have the rig…
I believe the SE/30, and IIx ROMs are identical.
Since the Mac II can be upgraded to FDHD, does that also upgrade it to the IIx ROM?
I know the SE/30 can use a IIfx and IIsi ROM.…

Yes, and that is most definitely a Mac Plus, so Gene didn't donate his Mac!

Why not!
But are there ever "definitive" instructions for any specific mod? I mean, when I started the Macminitosh I spent a lot of time on the web looking for similar projects, a…
But I'm definitely not the only one who did this. Look around, you'll find some other similar projects.
