Strange Memory Board!

["Chris" <cturley@nospam.net>]

    Hi everyone,

    I recently acquired a new part for my platinum Apple IIe.  It is one of
those megabyte memory board that go in a peripheral slot and not the
auxiliary slot.  It says 'Apple II Memory Expansion' on it.  It has 32 chip
sockets on it, of which 24 are filled.  On closer examination of the chips,
I realized that there were at least two different brands of chips on it.
The only number on them in common was 256 after a few zeroes, so I took it
that each chip had 256K of memory.  24*256=6144, so I assume it is a 6 MB
memory board.  Does anyone know which slot this card should go in.  I heard
that you needed special software or something to access this RAM and if so,
could someone tell me what this software is?

Thanks in advance.
