WTF is this thing?

I know that this thing is an accelerator for an SE. But, there were at least three different accelerators with similar specs from three different companies, and the fact that this card (and its unpictured passthrough/power card) has no maker's mark or model number on it anywhere, I don't know anything about it.

Anybody have any idea? If I had to guess, I'd say it's one of the Mobius models. MicroMac stuff is usually branded, and one or two other SE PDS upgrades had video out as well, and this isn't one of those. Maybe a Brainstorm or a TransWarp?

I never turned it on, because this one was installed in an SE with a broken CRT that I stripped for parts, and the other one (I have two) was in a dual floppy model with no included hard drive.

 
Lucky find. Sad thing about old accelerators is that so many companies relabeled them when the old company went under or sold the product line off.

I would have to dig through some old macworlds to find a picture of the card.

Are you looking for drivers for the thing or just want to know what it is?
