I thought it was because the Upgrade kit included Mac ROMs as opposed to Lisa ROMs that could emulate the Mac ROMs with MacWorks? Or is the MacXL a Lisa 2/10 with the upgrade kit AND the Mac ROMs? I've always thought the screen kit WAS the one that broke things, but weren't early MacXLs shipped without the screen kit?

Ooo confused :)
