TOPIC
Power Computing provided the information in this article and it was deemed accurate as of 14 November 1997. Apple Computer, Inc. is not responsible for its content. This article is being provided as is and will not be updated in the future.
This article contains the technical specifications for the PowerWave 120, 132, and 150.
DISCUSSION
This is Power Computing first PCI based machine. The PowerWave was also the first machine to run at 150MHz. The design is based on the "Tsunami" logic board design by Apple.
