01.014 What is an Apple II: The Apple IIe Emulation Card
This is a '//e on a card' plug-in which lets you run Apple II software.
The card fits into Mac LC and some subsequent machines that have the LC
Processor Direct Slot (PDS) and which support 24-bit memory addressing.
Many of these cards are sold today without documentation. In case you've
just plugged one into your Mac Color Classic, etc., it will help to know that
pressing Command-Control-Escape gets you to the Preferences panel.
The Apple IIe Emulation Card is actually more like a //c because the card
is not an expandable machine like a //e. There is a place on the back of the
card to plug in a Y-cable to which you can attach a Unidisk 3.5" disk drive
(white, A2M2053) and/or an Apple 5.25" disk drive (platinum, A9M0107) and a
joystick.
Because the graphics are handled by the Mac, animation may be slow if you
don't have a decent Mac. For more information, see FAQs resource file
