Does this mean that it might be ossible to take a 20XP and "upgrade" it to
a 30XP without essentially replacing the drive?  What about larger disks
(ie: 20XP -> 40XP)?

I haven't heard of any company offering such a service, but it sounds like
a great idea.  I can _always_ use more disk space.  :-)  I reached the limit
of my 20XP a while ago and started offloading stuff that I don't use often.
However, no that HyperCard has come out....
