Oh no. Apple never went beyond the '040, and the Classic in
particular was a very crippled design (pretty much a rereleased
original Mac, but with a 68000 and one megabyte of RAM), as were most
of their 68k machines except for the IIs, the Quadras, some of the
Centrises, and the SE/30. A lot of the Performas use the low range
68k chips with the MMU and FPU disabled (basically the 'full
versions' that didn't pass all the tests and so were sold with some
components disabled at a lower price). Motherboard designs further
limited the amount of memory to 10MB in some cases, and you certainly
won't get a Classic to recognise 128 MB RAM (you're thinking about
the SE/30 there, which is quite a capable machine and supposedly runs
BSD quite well).
