Yes, it's the 030-1467 thing. It looks like this machine was upgraded 
with the 030-1467 board, as other components like GFX, CPU and Xbow are 
quite old and come from the pre 030-1467 time.

This is a bit confusing. It seams that IP30 usually means mainboard 
with CPU. IRIX uses "IP30" to designate the machine architecture. 
What did you pay for the machine?
