I thought I recognised your name from when I had MSXs ;)

That card is strange. Is that a 68020 under the sticker? Looks like an Apple
II card, but what for... It's not a Mac card as someone else suggested, even
though it clearly has a 68K series FPU on it.

I'd guess it's either nothing to do with Apples, or a 680x0 co-processor of
a very limited type. It doesn't have enough address lines to do anything
useful, surely?
