The Centris 610 and 650 were confusing models in that (at least when 
first introduced) there was a base model C650 without Ethernet or FPU 
and a high-end C610 which had both while most C610's did not.  Apple 
realized this was too confusing and eliminated the differences (maybe 
even before they were replaced with the Q610 and Q650).  Consequently 
most databases, even GURU, did not preserve the quirk.
