The classic, classic x, and lx always use the same processor (ti?).
Some sparcstation 5's had a socketed processor, and there was a
third-party upgrade. I think the <160mhz versions had one processor,
and the 170mhz version and the third-party 160mhz upgrade used a
different one. I think Sparcstation 4's also had varients, but I
think all with the same processor.
The 4/690, sparcstation 10, 10s, and 20 were the only machines with
the separate mbus cards.
