They're similar but I forgot what the main difference was other than
the drives. I don't think the EX has a setup program like the HX's
SETUPHX is one. Wonder if it's possible to change settings on the
EX like the HX (EEPROM).
Other than the obvious difference in floppy size and location, the EX was
strictly an XT-class machine that required the 5-1/4" boot disk to boot, as it
didn't have the DOS-in-ROM of the HX. Also I could be wrong, but I don't
believe it had any type of internal EEPROM setup like the HX and AT-class and
above machines. Otherwise, the cases appear to be based on the same one, with
just the modifications for the floppy relocation.
