Yes it can. The Thunderscan  for the Mac is the same device as the
one for the Apple II. It appears that the Thunderscan was designed
for the Apple II but they added some adaptors to allow it to be
used with the Mac. You van download a PDF of the Apple II Thunderscan
Manual at  http://www3.telus.net/waynes/thunderscan.pdf

I just discovered that there is a version of the Thunderscan that is
Mac only. I have several of the units and the Mac versions all had an
adapter box that the Thunderscan plugs into. That box would connect to
the Mac. If you're going to use the unit on an Apple II, you instead
plug it directly into the Apple IIs game port.

Right after I posted my previous message I was sorting through a box
of Mac stuff I was give today and there was a version of the Thunderscan
I hadn't seen before. Instead of the Thunderscan plugging into an adator
box for Mac use, instead of a plug on the end of the cable, it ran into
the box. This version was for the 128 or 512k Mac. The ones that had a
separate adapter box were for the Mac II, SE and so forth.

Hope you got the Thunderscan with a separate adaptor Box.
