Comments
The Power Macintosh 4400 combines Macintosh performance and ease of use with
a streamlined, cost-effective design and outstanding compatibility with the PC world.
The 4400 features the RISC-based PowerPC 603e processor. The 4400/200 has two PCI expansion
slots with one comm II slot for flexibility in configuring the system to provide additional
capabilities. The 4400 is somewhat odd in that its floppy disk drive is placed to the left
side of the CD-ROM drive, unlike all other Macs. Like most inexpensive Windows clones of the time,
the 4400 employs an inexpensive jagged metal case to save on cost.
Beginning in April 1997, Apple sold a version of the 4400/200 that features a card
containing a Cyrix PR166 6x86 processor, running at 166 MHz, called the Power Macintosh
4400/200 PC Compatible for $2,400 US. The 4400/200 PC Compatible can operate in
Mac OS (up to OS 9), MS-DOS, Windows 3.1, Windows for Workgroups 3.11, or Windows 95 and
is able to instantly switch between environments. The PC card supports Sound Blaster
16 stereo sound output for PC multimedia compatibility. The card also contains 16 MB RAM.
The 12-inch PCI slot is sacrificed to hold the PC card. The 4400/200 PC Compatible uses a
12x-speed CD-ROM drive instead of the 8x-speed CD-ROM drive on the plain
4400/200.
