The Gestalt ID for the Quadra 605 is 94 and the Gestalt ID for the
Performa 475 is 89. So at this level the two are not _exactly_ identical
even if you change the faceplate. If you dig a bit deeper into the ROMs
you'll find that although the two share many common routines, they use
some different sequences for ADB interrupt handling. From a NetBSD point
of view, if your Kernel is built on the MRG routines, the two systems are
not _exactly_ the same, but very similar.
