Before I start driving myself crazy, I was thinking of putting a Uthernet II in my Rev-0 Apple II
Anyone know if the software works on the older plain 6502?
Thanks,
Corey

From Page 2 of the manual:
"The Uthernet II can be installed in any model of Apple II with slots, including the integer Apple II, Apple II plus, standard Apple IIe, enhanced Apple IIe, and Apple IIgs. The Uthernet II does not have any on-board firmware so it may be installed in any standard slot."
As I understand it, the software itself mostly requires ProDOS.
From Wikipedia's entry on ProDOS:
"All editions of ProDOS require an Apple II series computer or licensed compatible.
ProDOS 8 requires 64kB of memory to run. The original ProDOS (8) 1.0 through 1.0.2 required only 48kB for the kernel, but nearly all programs, including the BASIC.SYSTEM needed to use Applesoft BASIC, required 64kB, making a 48kB system useless for ProDOS as a practical matter, and support for 48kB machines was removed in version 1.1.
ProDOS 8 version 2.x requires a 65C02 or later (65802, 65816) CPU. ProDOS 8 2.x runs in 64kB, but the utility programs on the system disk require 128kB. Systems with a 6502 CPU instead of a 65C02 must use ProDOS 8 versions prior to version 2.0.
ProDOS 16 requires an Apple IIGS."
The answer is yes.
