   Can anyone provide any information on the use of the PCPI Applicard Z80
card with an Apple ][e.  The PCPI manual says that the SFTVIDEO driver should
not be used with the ][e, but without normal printer operations seem to be
impossible (with or without the BUFFER.DVR).  If the SFTVIDEO driver is used
(against PCPI advice), the printer will work, but errors seem to occur when
doing modem file transfers.
   I should also be interested to hear from anyone who has successfully 
implemented a real time clock using the Z80CTC chip on the card.
