This is, to the say the least untrue, Apple are still shipping
*SE*s with 150ns RAM and worse, with 2 low profile & 2 high profile
SIMMS, admittedly the low profile was 120ns, but the high profiles ?

In case you don't see the problem with this, imagine bending a Prodigy
board around the tops of the SIMMS, it's really not on to make a so-called
expandable machine and then make it unsuitable for adding cards to.

Whilst I'm at it, what's with the new SE chassis, two little mounting
brackets on the rhs, just where the second card might go, yes you have to
bend these out of the way too ...

This is not a flame of you Shirley, it's aimed at Apple.

BTW This is an Irish SE made at the end of November 1988.
