I notice you mention that it is a "SoftCard IIe". Does the Apple //e
require a special version of the SoftCard?
Well, I remember there was a Microsoft SoftCard II. The one I have is
clearly labelled Microsoft SoftCard IIe (big, old-type Microsoft logo). I
don't know if there are actual differences. I've never seen the SoftCard II.
I moved everything across to the //e (smoking a Disk

There are a lot of hardware incompatibilities between the two machines, I
think. They should be well documented, though.
I preferred the simple grooves in the back for cables
on my ][+ clone. I
never had to disconnect anything to remove it.
Yes, those were such a good idea. When I first saw them, I thought "this
is STRANGE". But it makes sense.
