The card plugs into the Processor Direct Slot or PDS, was a solution (actually, a whole number of different solutions) introduced by Apple Computer, in several of their Macintosh models, to providing a limited measure of hardware expandibility, without going to the expense (in both desktop space and selling price) of providing full_fledged bus...PDS slot in many of the LC series Macintoshes but not all models and system software combinations are supported. Apple's Tech Info Library article #8458 lists the following models as IIe card compatible: LC, Color Classic, LC II, LC III, LC 475, LC 520, LC 550, LC 575, Quadra 605, Performa 4XX, Performa 55X, Performa 56X, Performa 57X however there may be more models which are compatible with the Apple IIe Card. Macs which have an LC_compatible PDS slot AND which support 24_bit memory addressing can use the card. System 7 refers to the Mac OS that superseded the earlier versions of the Macintosh System Software before the term Mac OS came into official use. ...System 7.0 through to System 7.5.5 support both 24_ and 32_bit addressing on suitable Macintosh models; from System 7.6 onwards, Macintosh system software does not support 24_bit addressing. To enable 24_bit addressing, use the Macintosh Memory control panel.
