NOTE: the number to the right of the period is 30
(1Eh), NOT 3 (03h)
Even pickier: It is a "period", NOT a "decimal point", nor
"radix point";
^^^^^^
So what is it called in the UK? We call the end-of-sentence marker a
'full stop', not a 'period'.
it serves as punctuation separating an integer, and a
2 digit decimal
integer.
Does that mean that the correct way to pronounce the verisons are 'three -
thirty' and 'three - thirty one'?

Also, for those using hard disks, 3.30 had a 32M size
limit.; 3.31 was the
first version without the 32M limit.
AFAIK the PPC640 never hard a hard disk. There were a pair of D conenctors
(DB25 and DC37 I think, I forget the gender) that carried the system bus.
There is rumoured to be an expansion chassis for it, I've never seen one.
I also beliecve that US versions diddn't have those connecotrs fitted,
due to the FCC emissions regulations. I guess it would support an XT hard
disk controller (with its own boot/BIOS ROM) connected there, but I've
never seen it done.
