This type of hardware exists but only as prototypes (I have talked to people
who have seen it) but Apple get really peeved at this idea for some reason
and starts calling out the lawyers. I think it would be a great tie bringing
the Apple II line and the Macintosh closer together. I would settle for a
IIgs card for my Mac ci though but all they seem to be willing to offer is
a IIe card.
