What does this card do?




16bit CPU in an apple II...

It could allow you to program 16bit apps,
but there wasn't much/any software created
for it.

heh - try this...

Take an Apple IIe with a 16bit option card and install a ZipGS (you'llhave to make a flippy cable to reach the socket) and viola - you've gota DMA compatible, 16bit capable Apple IIe with cache running at whateverspeed your ZipGS is rated at.


This wont work with the Transwarp GS as it has 16bit firmware.
