I have a chance to get a MacIvory II board. I have a Mac IIci to plug it into,
but I need to know what else I'll need to make the board operational. I've
heard that you need a NuBus memory board, a custom keyboard and mouse, and a
whack of disk space. If anybody could help me, it would be much appreciated.
Specifically,
  1) What special software (if any) is required on the Macintosh?
  2) What other hardware will be needed, beyond the board itself? How much
     memory and disk?
  3) What software is available to make the board operational, over and above
     what will be needed on the Macintosh?
  4) Can I use the system for Lisp development, or is it for delivering Lisp
     systems, as I saw in one reference?
I currently use MCL and I've owned Symbolics machines in the past, so I'm not
completely at a loss... But I have no experience with MacIvory systems, at all.
