Right. That's exceptionally common. A 512 gets converted with a standard upgrade kit that includes a new back, for the upgraded ports and a Plus motherboard for the jump to one megabyte of RAM. The front is reused. REALLY good reason why the 128 is such an extinct animal. Software speaking, it's really useless. But collectible wise, it's golden. So many were recycled into 512's and Plusses.
