A Classic II logic board will make it a much better machine, especially in System 6. Upgrade RAM to 10 mb also.
Also be aware the ports are slightly different--you have a sound input jack on the Classic II (not present on a regular Classic).
That is pretty weird.. you all talk about drilling a hole next to the ADB port for sound in...
but on my Classic... there is already a hole there, including the microphone logo.
it is just covered with a little plastic cap.
That means they used the same bucket for the later classic I and newer classic II models.
funny thing to know, cause i didn't

Interesting in that my Classic does not have the plug but does have the molded information label instead of the adhesive label yours has. I can't remember ever having a Classic with a label like yours.
Maybe the plug appeared after the Classic II went into production.
