Emax

I have an Emax SE HD Plus keyboard:

Model: 2100
Serial: 0290151

I believe it was a factory "Plus" because there is a bigger space 
between the logos "E-mu Systems" and "Emax" on the back to make room 
for for the SCSI connector compared to other models where the words 
are closer together (funny that E-mu felt it was worth it to redo the 
silkscreening to accomodate the connector!). But interestingly 
nowhere on the instrument does it actually say "Plus". In fact from 
the front it looks identical to a factory SE model (it doesn't even 
say "HD" so maybe the internal hard drive was added later).

So maybe the Plus name was more a marketing label and not necessarily 
an official model like SE or HD?

Unless I'm wrong and someone owns a machine that actually says "Plus" 
on it?
