Hi Dennis,
I know this is reolly off-topic... but I sow you have the very same Apple IIc Setup as I do.
Are you or have you ever used Appleworks 2.0? By scouring the Internet I was able to find the proper software to set up and implement the AE card. I was particularly excited about using it with AppleWorks to time-stamp a journal I've been writing... but in signing in on boot-up it asks for a date "larger than 86," which is when I gather the AE software is/was written. Well, obviously 16 (as in 2016) is less than 86, so it kecps kicking me out. I've looked for a patch to fix this, but nothing so far.
Ideas?
