Never noticed this feature before: MacIntosh SE 30 1891T

Had to borrow and enlarge this image provided to DigiBarn by the mfr. in order to read it:

Neat stuff, suddenly tempted to figure out what to do with a half height 5.25" cover plate in a repro SE/30 case.

That could not have been cheap... you'd think though, if you're spending all that $$$ to keep your stuff safe from the Soviets (or, uh, Captain Crunch's buddies) that you'd want more RAM than just a 1Mb?

Here's a better pic of that spec. sheet. Dunno why the first one didn't work out. 1MB would have been as inexpensive as it got., just enough to run the machine. More could be added aftermarket by the customer or spec'd in the order as an installed upgrade I'd think..
