About your Workgroup Server 9150 and Power Macintosh software
Your Workgroup Server 9150 is powered by the new PowerPC microprocessor
(or “chip”). This microprocessor was designed by Apple Computer, Inc.,
Motorola, Inc., and IBM Corporation. The PowerPC microprocessor uses
Reduced Instruction Set Computer (RISC) technology to deliver very high
performance at the lowest possible cost. The PowerPC RISC microprocessor
represents the state of the art in microprocessor design.
Your Workgroup Server 9150 will run almost all of your existing Macintosh
software, but for best performance and greatest speed, look for software programs
designed especially for Power Macintosh computers. You’ll find Power
Macintosh programs at any software store that carries products for Macintosh.
