It's accurate as is. A //c plus can't run any software that won't run on a
//c, and isn't any more expandable. And the same for a ROM 3 IIgs as opposed
to a ROM 01. And in each case, Apple didn't offer an upgrade since it wasn't
cost effective in their estimation. They said for ROM 01 IIgs owners to just
install system 5.0 to get the equivalent of a ROM 3, and told //c owners
wanting a //c plus to install a zip chip and get a Unidisk.
