The Aurora cases were used for the SS20/5/4.  Remember that the Aurora 1 was
different from the Aurora 2.  The 1 has a 1/3 height purple CDROM and a
fairly normal sized  purple floppy, whereas the 2 has a normal 1/2 height
beige CDROM and a slimline beige floppy.  I think there were a couple of
other minor differences as well...  HTH,
