-Upgrade paths starting from a standard Macintosh II:
-1.  Get a PMMU.  
-    End result? 68020/68881/68851 with standard floppy drives.
-2.  Get a PMMU.  Get a floppy drive upgrade kit.  
-    End result? 68020/68881/68851 with SuperDrive.
-3.  Get a floppy drive upgrade kit.
-    End result? 68020/68881 with SuperDrive.
-4.  Get a logic board upgrade kit.  Get a floppy drive upgrade kit.
-    End result? 68030/68882 with SuperDrive.  You have a Macintosh IIx.

I presume it is also possible to get a 68882 only, thus giving faster math
with no other changes.  (the '882 is upward compatible with the '881)
