Does anyone know if an Apple //e 80 column card will work in an Apple II+? I have a Apple //e 80 column card for sale (I sold the rest of the computer), but I don't know if it will work in an Apple II+. Anyone who is interested in buying it, I'm asking $15 or whatever you think it's worth. ************************************************************************** ** Robert Warden warden@grad1.cis.upenn.edu ** ** University of Pennsylvania @gradient.cis.upenn.edu ** ** ** ** "Even a broken clock tells the time correctly twice a day" ** ** - Withnail & I ** **************************************************************************

The //e has a special memory expansion slot; the older Apple II models lack that slot. Expansion cards for the old models plugged into the Apple II peripheral bus, which has different characteristics.

The Apple IIe 80 column card requires the auxilary slot on the IIe, whichis not on the Apple II+ motherboard. A few thrid party manufacturers made 80 column cards for the II+ (most notably Videx) but they are long extinct. PS Nobody would want the plain old 80 column card for the IIe nowadays. Without the extended 64K, it is useless. It'll make a pretty silly paper weight. _____________________________________________________________________________ | | | | Drew Rudman | 9600 HST Call 60 megs | | drewr@hpiosa.corp.hp.com or | THE CHARGE | | drudman@hpcc01.corp.hp.com | IBM/Apple 24 hrs/day | | Axe Slinger (#1)@The Charge | (415) 321-4713 - Menlo Park, CA | |______________________________|______________________________________________|

(Yeah, yeah, 900 numbers are a lousy way to do tech support, but my DataLink 2400 and my RamWorks haven't died on me.) >PS Nobody would want the plain old 80 column card for the IIe nowadays. > Without the extended 64K, it is useless.

(A small handful; I have the extended 80-column card left over from installing the RamWorks. It's just 64K of DRAM (eight chips), a 74LS245, a 74LS373, a jumper, ten bypass capacitors, and the board. Not a whole lot of stuff.)
