It's the only reason for its existence!I guess I found the term completely ambiguous. Did he mean an encoder card, a card in the AUX slot (at the "keyboard end"), the keyboard circuit board itself, or what?It's Apple's 64KB auxilliary memory card. The last version was so small it was the exact same length as the slot, so there was nothing to stop it being put in the wrong way around except for a label at one end of the card: "Keyboard End". I had to read the auction description twice before I spotted it, but I laughed out loud when I did. For sale: Keyboard End Card.
*Now* I get it! "Ha, Ha, that's very logical." ;-) I've actually seen one of these, but only long enough to unplug it and replace it with a 1MB card. ;-) -michael Music synthesis for 8-bit Apple II's!
