That would work perfectly!
Are you planning on networking the II with other systems (like that
nifty LC 475)? You might want to look into a Mac II with an Ethernet
card already installed. Although, I am willing to bet money that the
system will have one. This is all assuming that the other networked
systems have Ethernet capabilities.

It's a cool big machine! ;) I have a Mac IIfx and I just LOVE it.
Okay, so that's quite a bit different than the II, but still, they
share the same case.
You would be buying this outright then? Reason I ask is that some
sellers on eBay seem to be ripping the buyers off on shipping. Get
this: I once saw someone trying to sell a PowerBook with a fixed
shipping charge of $50!! Come on, there is no way that an eight pound
PowerBook could possibly cost that much to ship. Unless it's shipped
in a large iron box, or the packing materials are gold bars!

I am curious about the PRAM batteries myself. Scott, are the batteries
the kind that need to be soldered to the motherboard? This comes as no
surprise, the early SE's had that kind of setup. And since the II came
out with the SE...
