From Apple website :
The Apple IIe Enhancement improves the performance of the Apple IIe by replacing four chips on the main circuit board.
The Enhancement has four major benefits:
1. Apple IIc compatibility:
Users can take advantage of software developed for the Apple IIc.
2. Product line consistency:
Apple II software can be used on both the Apple IIe and IIc.
3. The MouseText character set makes it easy for developers to create
software that uses pull-down menus, windows, and icons.
4. Easier programming for users:
a. Accepts BASIC commands in both upper- and lowercase
b. Additional instructions in the 65C02
c. Mini-assembler for machine language programs.
The Apple IIe Enhancement Kit, Order A2M2052, is available from Apple Authorized Dealers for users who wish to upgrade their systems.
