WHAT ORDINARY NON-IBM USES FOR PC-TRANSPORTER?
==============================================
Someone got me a dead IIgs CPU at a yard sale. Inside it was a RAM card
and .... PC Transporter!
I have absolutely no interest in using PC TransPorter to run old IBM
software. BUT, I heard somewhere, long ago, that this card has other
uses, such as a RAM card 640K. Is this true???
Can it also be used as a db-19 disk drive controller? Can it run one or
two platinum 3.5 800K drives on a IIe???
Any other ordinary uses for it?
The CPU appears to be dead --- not even a self-test. What is the simplest
test I can do to PC-TransPorter to check whether it works???
Thanks, Steve Buggie

NOTE: With my latest hardware "smuggled" into the house, Mrs. Buggie is
likely to throw another "hardware tantrum." Look for my ads coming soon
to reduce the Apple inventory!
