With all the talk of new macs (Mac Classic, Mac IIsi, October announcemnets, October/January shipping dates, etc.) I seem to have forgotten whether any of the new macs will be an 030 machine. I know tha Mac Classic won't be one, and I THINK the IIsi is an 020 machine... Can anybody enlighten me before I make a buying decision (I am leaning towards the SE/30 now).

I don't have the article with me, but it mentioned that the case will be smaller than the ci, it will have but one expansion slot, built in video (which will work with two new monitors being introduced as well, one in particular is something like 384 by 512, which according to the article, is 40 pixels higher than the current 13" monitor of the ci.

That new II si also has no floating point processor and you will need an adaptor for Nubus cards or the like because of the profile of the si, the cards will have to lay horizontally across the motherboard (If I remember correctly) Just my 2 cents
