I have a Performa 550 which was upgraded to a 575 and it came with the Apple II
card.  I messed with it since I was considering putting GBBS on it using the
Apple II emulation, but found it to be too clunky to use, beside it had to be
in the 61 bit mode. It was an interesting idea and had Apple continued with it
there might have been a use for it, maybe even a IIgs emulation.  Right now it
is just sits and gets used by my daughter to long on to AOL.
