Power Macintosh 9500
Background
The first second generation PowerMac, the 9500, was the first Mac to comply with the PCI industry standard. The 9500 came in a full tower case, and had 7 internal drive bays. Like the Mac II, the 9500 came with no graphics capability--a third party add-on card was required. The most innovative feature of the 9500 was that its processor came on a daughtercard, making future upgrades much less expensive.
