Yes, but Headley is looking for a hard drive for the IIc or IIGS.  For the
IIGS' software, the Apple IIe Card can't do anything for it.

Besides, $25 is almost half-way to equipping the IIGS with a hard drive.
http://www.allelec.com/ Alltech Electronics sells the Focus hardcard for
the Apple II for $59.
