Yeah, that's how they are. FLIP CHIP is actually printed IN REVERSE on one
side of the card and if you look at it from the right hand side of the box
(i.e. right hand being to the right of the console) you would see FLIP CHIP
through the card in correct directioned text.
i.e. the traces are on the "slot 9" side.

I've tried switching some boards around, no help.
All grant cards are installed where you could read FLIP CHIP from the
processor side.
I am not sure that's right. The tracks -- the edge fingers that are
shorted together -- should be on towards the left side of the machine
(front panel towards you, backplane at the bottom, of course).
