Re: Uther card works on Apple IIplus with contiki



My board is a rev D and the Synertek 6502 has a date code of 8223. The date 
of the IIplus board won't matter as much as the revision. It maybe a 
revision issue, who knows. I do know that prodos needs a good 16K ram card 
or it will have problems. Also, with Contiki I can only have 1 application 
running at a time, like the web browser. If it trys to goto screen saver it 
pops up with out of memory error. I don't believe it is an issue where too 
many cards cause problems, 6 of my 8 slots are used:

slot0  32K Saturn RAM card
slot1  not used
slot2  SSC
slot3  Disk II controller for SVD
slot4  Uther card
slot5  not used
slot6  Disk II controller for 2 disk II drives
slot7  CFFA card with 16M San Disk running Dos Master with 100 140K 
partitions for images.

I have several more IIplus computers but really don't have the time to pull 
them out and start running tests. If you want internet on your IIplus, the 
Uther card is the way to go. Pretty painless process.
