I am not sure how the add-in boards mount in the Mac II, but if they
are not supported at both ends I would not recommend standing the
system on edge. If the unit is situated such that the plug-in boards
are parallel to the floor, and not properly supported, the angle of
force placed on the edge connectors may result in a heavily populated
board not making good contact to the bottom row of connections in the
edge connector.
The hard disk, of course, is another possible problem.
