If you need increased performance and expandability for your business, regardless of its size, the 7500/100 delivers--and preserves your investment into the future. Built-in video input capability, high-resolution graphics (up to 1,280 by 1,024 pixels), and CD-quality stereo sound add vitality to everyday business projects and let you explore new computer-enabled applications. For example, the Power Macintosh 7500/100 optimizes the transfer of video data between a network and the computer's display monitor, making this an ideal system for videoconferencing. Apple's own QuickTime Conferencing software is even included. Power Macintosh 7500 systems include three Peripheral Component Interconnect (PCI) expansion slots. Because PCI is an industry standard, you can find inexpensive PCI cards for a variety of uses, including video-conferencing, connection to faster peripherals, and high-speed networking. Many PCI cards include the necessary software to work with Macintosh systems. PCI support allows you to standardize on one type of card in your organization, saving you support time and dollars. Connecting your computer to an Ethernet network is easier than ever with the Power Macintosh 7500,because it includes both AAUI and 10Base-T connectors. With a PowerPC 601 RISC processor running at 100 megahertz that you can upgrade to an even more powerful 604 processor, the Power Macintosh 7500/100 gives you all the advantages of PowerPC technology now--with plenty of room to grow later. Power Macintosh 7500 systems run most applications written for 680x0-based Macintosh computers, as well as applications that have been accelerated to take advantage of their PowerPC processors. By adding SoftWindows software from Insignia Solutions, you can also run MS-DOS and Windows applications, enabling the 7500 to fit into almost any computing environment. Whether you are selecting computers for a large corporation or a one-person home office, the Power Macintosh 7500/100 system's PowerPC performance and PCI expandability offer the versatility you need for professional computing.
