  Had I known, I'd have sold one.  I have 5 of them left. The power of eBay. 
Something like that I charge $4 for Priority Mail shipping. 

  The ROMs on the board contain the diagnostic routines, and the board ONLY
works on the //e.  Will not work on the ][+.  They had a NTSC and PAL version
of the card originally.

  The card checks ROM, RAM, MMU, IOU, etc....  Lets you test the color
circuitry, keyboard keys, etc...  Plug it in, flip the switch up, and turn on
the computer, and it'll come up.  Card was made oversized to prevent the tech
from leaving it in a customer's computer.
