How to determine the ROM version of a Macintosh computer

On early machines, ROMBase = $400000


 offset/length | description

  $00  |   4   | Checksum
  $08  |   2   | Major Version
  $12  |   2   | Minor Version
  $4C  |   2   | Sub-Release

Notes:

  1. The ROM version does not necessarily reflect slight differences in ROM sets. For example, the Macintosh IIfx ROMs are slightly different from the Macintosh IIci ROMs, even though the ROM version number is the same.

  2. Macintosh Plus ROMs are also used in Macintosh 512K enhanced models.

  3. With the Centris 660AV and Quadra 840AV, a new 2 MB ROM was introduced.
