PowerPC 601
Apple Power Macintosh 6100
Apple Macintosh · 1994
The first PowerPC Macintosh, and the transition made visible: a 601 in a cheap pizza-box case running most 68k software through emulation, sometimes slower than the machines it replaced. Historically important as the start of the PowerPC era, and the DOS-compatible version with a 486 card on a riser is the collectable variant.
