:The 22MHz upgrade is for the 500s and 600s. Basically the standard motherboard

:get the entire WE32200 chip set (including 32206 MAU). I believe this upgrade

:( without ECC like the 500, 600, and 700). The upgrade package include a new
:facepate with the designation 3B2/522 or 622 accordingly.

  Yes, also the model 310 and 400 use a motherboard designated as the ED4C637,
while the modle 500 and 600 use a 518A and the 700 uses a 518B.  The ED4C637
is a whole different internal architecure than the 518A or 518B, and is a little
smaller than the 518A or 518B, which makes a motherboard swap an impossibility
due to physical limitations (without swapping out almost all the internal
components).  The 518A and 518B are very similar and use the same internal
architecture.
