_You used to be able to say "pr#7" but that is now Appletalk.  
    On the second and leter version of the IIc, the
first version to be able to use 3.5in drives, PR#5 tries to boot from each
drive hooked up to the port in turn, including the 5.25 in drive if it is
attached.  On later version, which have the mouse firmware in port 7, PR#7
crashes the system

_Anyway a friend wants to know about the memory expansion capabilities of
_such a board? Apparently the last board in Australia had an expansion slot on
_it.
    If PR#7 crashes the system and it's not a IIc+, it is a memory
expandable version.  You need a IIc memory expansion card, not a IIc+ memory
expansion card.
