...Its the COPY II PC Deluxe Option Board by Central Point Software.
...It can be installed in a PC, PC/XT, PC/AT, or 100% compatible (even 
...an AT&T PC6300!) and connected to a 3.5" drive.  

Even a PS/2 25 or 30!  But beware!  My wife ordered one and they sent
her the XT version (the PS/2 requires a special cable, included at
apparently no extra cost).
