I don't know where you have been for the last 3 years, but a Mac IIx has a
68030, the Mac IIx ROMs, the Mac IIcx ROMs, and the SE/30 ROMs are all
functionally identical (except for very minor differences relating to the
fact that a IIx has 6 NuBus slots, the IIcx has 3 NuBus slots, and the SE/30
has a direct slot.) The only Mac with a 68020 is a Mac II.
