Ah, as I said, I didn't have one to compare. It's a while since I've
been playing with anything with ISA in it.
The apple dad had briefly was, maybe, a IIe - would they be different?
Did he ever have an Apple II or something of similar
era? My wild stab
in the dark is it's a serial interface card for an Apple II or
similar. Whatever it was didn't have a convention of using PC-Style
backplane brackets but instead had a ribbon cable hung out the back,
which I believe was how some A II were.
Hmm. That's a possibility - he never used an apple, but I know one
passed through his hands a few years ago - it might be this relates to
that, but it got lost at the time.

Not really; an 8-bit ISA card has 62 fingers, this card has 50. It
looks a bit like an Apple II card, but the location of the fingers
used for power looks wrong to me, so it's probably not that either. PM671R is the part number of the DC/DC convertor (5 v
-> 12 v) that label's on.
Well it was the only obvious label on there! :-)
