I have a Apple IIe Enhancement Kit on e-Bay, and someone has asked me
the following question "what effect does the kit have", and to be
honest I don't have a clue.  It was given to me from a guy off of
freecycle along with some printers, and a Apple IIe; and since both my
Apple IIe's are already enhanced I thought I would auction it off on
e-Bay.

Can someone tell me exactly what the enhancement kit has in it and what
it will do?
Thanks,
Jim



Character ROM chip (for the "Mousetext" characters), 2 monitor ROM chips that include a couple of bug-fixes and the return of the "mini-assembler", plus a 65C02 processor with several machine-language instructions that the "regular" 6502 didn't have.

Most of my machines have 65C02's, but some don't.  I have never found
the additional instructions of the 65C02 sufficiently compelling to
warrant writing programs that are incompatible with 6502s.

It isn't like they added a multiply or something!  ;-)
