Peripheral Cards - Apple: "Apple IIe 80 Column Card"

The Extended Apple II 80 column card for the Apple IIe was actually an additional 64K of RAM that gave it a total of 128K RAM, including 8K extra in the video RAM space, making a full 80 columns of text displayable using an interleave method (every other column was from either main or auxillary memory). The additional memory also made double hi-res and double lo-res graphics possible. The "regular" 80 column card was just an 8K RAM card, giving only 80 column text capability, but not enhanced graphics or RAM storage.
