Neat score, that card and cable came all the way from over here in South Dakota. I know the guy who used to own it

Nice find, The Apple IIe card is very cool, and and NeXT stuff is great for any collection. Good that the IIe card came with the Y-Cable, they are nearly impossible to find by themselves. My Macintosh LC came with the IIe card, it is a very neat trick.

I Believe the IIe card was a way to let education customers switch to macs from apple II's, and not have to rebuy software they paid thousands for a few years ago. IDK if that ploy worked, but the card seems to be somewhat rare now. :-/ Nice that you found one

To end out my long and rambling post, Nice finds!

Brett, really? So this card have travelled around a bit

I am looking forward installing it to LCII i have, 10Mb RAM, nice large HDD and cleaned disk drive. Need to take the ethernet card off now, well not so much use for it anyway.
