Back in 1986 I worked for a reseller and we had an 8500 arrive in the 
warehouse.  Before we had a chance to send it out, a field service tech 
came in and "upgraded" it to an 8530.  As I recall, the change involved 
loading microcode and changing the removable label on the cabinet from 
8500 to 8530.  It was definitely an easy upgrade.
