- Microtek Sloware Card RV611 (found in the II+) - what's this?
Don't know--but are you sure it isn't "slotware"? (There was a
"governor" card made to slow down an Apple II...)
Appears to say "Sloware", but the label is fairly worn. Could be
"Slotware" - I'll take a closer look when I get home tonight.
- Applied Engineering AE 5.25" floppy - no other identifying markings -
specs?
Either a regular 5.25" Apple-compatible or a PC-compatible made
for the AE PC Trancporter. Someone here who's used one will tell
us.
Don't know if this helps. If I plug this into the Smart Port on my
IIgs, the machine won't boot - the red light on the drive unit comes on,
stays on - no further activity. Without this attached, the IIgs boots
normally to 6.0.1 from the FocusDrive in Slot 6 (set to 'Your Card',
Start Up Slot = 6), though I think I read somewhere that a IIgs has to
be configured properly to allow the machine to boot to a hard drive when
a 5.25" drive is attached. Don't remember the setup instructions...

- Pacemark IIEasy RAM Memory Upgrade Board PN: IIEZRAM-64K Text Graphics
Card - (in one of the IIe's) - specs?
Sounds like a //e 64K (+ 80-column) card.
Thanks
- unlabelled card, no manufacturer markings, part #s, serials, etc: 3
white labels attached to ICs: 80CV-1, 80CV-2, 80CV-3; 1 Texas
Instruments IC marked: 3F1 HD46505SP HD6845SP - Is this an 80-column
card or maybe a CP/M card? This was in the II+.
It's an 80-column card for the Apple II or II+, probably Videx-compatible.
Videx compatible? I'm sure this is obvious, but can you enlighten me?
--<snip>--
A RAM expansion card for the Apple II or II+, probably 32KB, but
would need the number and type of the DRAM chips to be sure.
I'll take a closer look tonight & get those numbers posted here.

Any of the era's RGB monitors should work, if you can get the cable
right.
Thanks. I'll dig around the junk boxes in the basement and see if I've
got something that will do the job.
