I checked the machines today and the card is made by National
Instruments. I don't have the model number in front of me right now
though. One of the IIfx that I opened up had a Radius 24bit graphics
card (Colorview 8/24 I believe) along with a Radius RISC coprocessor
card, the National Instruments card, and a 3com ethernet card.
There's also a card in the 1st slot near the floppy that is pretty
much unmarked and doesn't have any external or internal connectors on
it. It does have it's own clock crystal though. Unfortunately,
every one of them has had the hard disk removed though a number of
them have a full compliment of RAM. Looks like a pretty
interesting setup...I hope to get the one mentioned above working
again.
