Well.  My Mac 512e (which now has 2M memory and a dove SCSI port) can 
probably be modified for the simple reason that the memory upgrade was
a piggy back upgrade that ONLY affected the memory chips.  The CPU is
fully exposed.  The only problem I can see is if the monitor board
were too large to fit over the CPU without bumping into the Dove SCSI port.
One nice thing about the piggy back memory upgrade is that it does not
need a fan (it gets hot, but seems to be working).  The one not nice thing
about this upgrade is that it needs to be done by someone with ALOT of patients
and technical ability.  (oh, regarding the 'computer for the rest of us'
discussion, my mac system (Mac2Me+SCSI+70M Jasmine drive) ran a total of
$4000 to date, quite resonable I think (the price includes an ImageWriter
and an external 400K drive)).
