Ok so recently on the trading post there were some boards that came up for sale on in particular was an 8100 board. I posted up that I wanted it and although I was not first LaPorta graciously allowed me to have it. I live pretty close so it already came today. When I swapped it into my machine it booted up perfectly! I was extremely pleased but when I went to system profiler it says Power Macintosh 8100/80 AWGS 8150. Does anyone know if that is just there because they were so similar and all boards show the same machine ID or is it actually from an AWGS? I really only care because this machine is actually an AWGS or at least that's what it says on the front even though I don't think there are any real differences other than software between the AWGS and the regular machines.
Anyhow any thoughts? I was just tickled to see it showed the right machine ID, but I'm not sure if that's what they all show it's been a long time since this machine worked.
