Power Macintosh G3(Blue and White)
Another year, another revolution. The all-new Power Macintosh G3 is here.
역사적 배경
Sporting an all new translucent "easy-open" case design (code named "El-Capitan"), the new G3 was the first Apple model to support FireWire, Apple's new high-speed serial standard. It was also the first professional model to include USB, although it also came with a legacy ADB port for backwards compatibility. In a controversial move, Apple chose not to include standard serial ports, a floppy drive, or on-board SCSI (Apple instead chose Ultra ATA). An internal Zip was available, however, as were SCSI expansion cards. The G3 was available in a number of configurations, starting at $1599 U.S., and rounding out near $5000 U.S. for the fully loaded server configuration. In late April, the line was speed-bumped by 50 MHz, bringing the high-end model to 450 MHz.
