For people who want power, ease-of-use, and compatibility, Apple PC Compatibility Cards can turn your Power Macintosh computer into the most flexible, versatile system available.
Offering either a Pentium 100-megahertz processor on a 12-inch card or a 586 100-megahertz processor on a 7-inch card, these PC Compatibility Cards let you run MS-DOS and Windows applications directly on your Power Macintosh computer. You can switch instantly between Mac OS, Windows, and MS-DOS environments with a single keystroke.
With the PC Compatibility Cards, your Power Macintosh computer becomes a powerful dual micro-processor system. The Pentium pro-cessor delivers fast performance for MS-DOS and Windows applications. The 586 processor offers a more affordable option, yet still runs all the same applications.
Because the Power Macintosh PowerPC processor and the Pentium (or 586) processors work independently, you can run Macintosh and MS-DOS or Windows applications concurrently. In fact, you can even cut and paste information between them, as well as share folders and disks.
In addition, the PC Compatibility Cards help your Power Macintosh computer fit into your work environment better than ever. Once you install either card, your system will support MS-DOS and Windows net-work applications and services using Novell NetWare SPX/IPX, TCP/IP, and NETBEUI protocols over the built-in Ethernet network connection¬in addition to its standard Macintosh networking capabilities.
You can even run MS-DOS and Windows multimedia applications using your computer's built-in CD-ROM drive, with the built-in Sound Blaster-16 support.
In short, with a PC Compatibility Card for MS-DOS and Windows environments, you don't have to choose between operating systems¬you can run more software than any other mainstream personal computer on the market.
