Certain third-party add-ons for the Mac Plus do not invalidate Apple's
warranty or AppleCare.  I can't give a comprehensive list, but I know
that GCC's HyperDrive is in that category.  Before Apple can validate
a warranty on a Mac with a third-party upgrade, we have to make sure that
the upgrade is reliable and won't cause problems.  Since all third-party
upgrades for Mac Plus and earlier involve modifying the machine, we've
had to do it on a case-by-case basis.  Now that we have machines with
slots, and there are specs for those slots, there should be no problem.
I'm not sure what the exact status of this issue is right now, so it
would be best to check with someone who does know.
