Service and Support Tip Jar - In short, what’s the difference between the “A” and “B” design 353 controllers?

First of all, the display, I/O expander board, and case assembly are the same for both design units. The only change was made to the MPU motherboard.
The “B” design MPU no longer accepts any plug-in accessory boards such as the LIL, RTC/CB, or Ethernet boards. This means LIL is no longer available on the 353 “B” design unit.
If LIL is required, you can still get it with the 352P or 353R. Ethernet is now standard and built right on the new “B” design MPU board along with the MMC (Multi Media Card).
The “Big Sales Plus” - pricing of the unit has not changed. You get over $700 of features on the “B” design (Ethernet & MMC Card) that you had to pay for on the “A” design.
