  Apple II History Chap 11
Apple's efforts to de-emphasize the Apple II went so far as to have their developer technical support staff specifically recommend that new applications not be created for the Apple II or II, but rather for the Macintosh.
To an Apple II computer with the Workstation Card, the network connection would appear both as a disk drive AND as a printer, allowing the network to be used both for file storage and retrieval as well as a conduit to print to a central printer.
Apple representatives met with the Bay Area Apple User Group to let them know of the decision to terminate production of the II During this meeting, the news was met with a quiet resignation, rather than the anger that had often greeted Apple's anti-Apple II decisions in the past.

 Attachment Unit Interface - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
An Attachment Unit Interface (AUI) is a 15 pin connection that provides a path between a node's Ethernet interface and the Medium Attachment Unit (MAU), sometimes known as a transceiver.
It is the part of the IEEE Ethernet standard located between the MAC, and the MAU.
A modified form using a smaller connector called the AAUI was used on Apple Macintosh computers in the early 1990s.

The Apple II Team at the time 'busted ass' on this project and were not happy, to say the least.
This version was not based on the Apple II Workstation card in any regards, but rather stood on it's own and was more generic approach, using all 'off the shelf' parts, no custom Apple parts involved at all.

 Apple Attachment Unit Interface - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Apple Attachment Unit Interface (AAUI) is a mechanical re-design of the standard Attachment Unit Interface (AUI) used to connect Ethernet transceivers to computer equipment.
AAUI signals have the same description, function, and electrical requirements as the Attachment Unit Interface (AUI) signals of the same name, as detailed in IEEE 802.3-1990 CSMA/CD Standard, section 7, with the exception that most hosts provide only 5 volt power rather than the 12 volts required for most AUI transceivers.
An adaptor containing a power supply to provide the required 12 volts was available from Apple to permit connection of standard AUI transceivers to an AAUI port - this facilitated direct connection to 10BASE-F (fibre optic) and 10BASE5 (ThickNet) Ethernet networks, for which AAUI transceivers were not available.
