Macintosh Quadra 950
Towers1992Rare
The most powerful 68k Mac Apple ever made — a 33 MHz 68040 in a full tower with five NuBus slots and support for up to 256MB of RAM. The 950 was the choice for professional video editors, 3D animators, and anyone who pushed the Mac platform to its limits in the early 1990s. When PowerPC arrived in 1994, the 950 was still fast enough to compete. A landmark machine.
