Rare copy of "Apple II SwyftWare" on eBay. It's actually the even
rarer SwyftCard (SwyftWare was the software only version).

I believe that SwyftWare and SwyftCard were the Apple II versions of
the Jef Raskin's interface for the Canon Cat, the one that Steve Job's
bounced off Raskin's Macintosh project at Apple.

Given the recent death of Jef Raskin, this item might be of interest to
some on this list.
