That's more than I've seen,  but as I say I haven't been into that much of
this sort of thing in recent years.  The most common physical configuration
seemed to be one board in the bottom of the case,  with a small board
holding the CRT socket and some drive parts,  and that was it.  Some of
them had additional power supply parts in separate boards or even
enclosures.  I can't figure that placement you mention,  it must have a
really different internal layout.
