Just to add my $0.02, I plan on keeping tthis Ye Olde Apple][e until
they take me away to the funny farm. Now that I've got a SCSI card for
this beast, I'll just keep recycling my Mac hard drives to the ][e.
Honestly, I don't use it all that much since I have a spiffy colour
Mac, but my Apple ][e is always going to have a place in my home. And
it will always be used for something.

About the only thing this puppy needs is some more RAM. Anyone know
where I can get the piggy-back boards for the RamWorks III card so I
can get some more memory?
