There is a different version for the IIci. It sounded to me like they hadn't
quite gotten it ready for release (the notes from the 2.0 upgrade mention
this). So, it looks like you're out of luck.

I am extremely happy with the 2.0 upgrade. Seems very solid, and I like the
new options to set the size and location of the swap file. 2.0 fixes a bug I
found in 1.05 on my Mac II where it screwed up my keyboard - made applications
(and MacEnvy) think that I had a standard keyboard when I had the Saratoga...

Even though RAM prices have fallen, Virtual is still pretty cost-effective.
$125 for the IIx/IIcx/SE/30 version, and $195 for the II version (with PMMU!)
from MacConnection...
