:Sorry, no Mac Centris can use the Apple IIe card. The Macs that can use the
:IIe card are the LC, LCII, LCIII, Color Classic, and maybe some of
:the new LC Macs like the 475. (I'm not sure on that one though...)

Sorry, wrong answer (at least partly).  The LC 475 will take the //e card.
With the new product allignment at Apple, the LC 475, Performa 475, and
Quadra 605 are the same basic machine.  All three of these will take the
//e card.
Apple will not release any new Centris models, that means no Centris can
use the //e card.  That part you got correct.
