Apple Computer Demonstrates DOS Compatibility Card for Power Macintosh
Systems

NEW YORK, New York -- June 28, 1994 -- Continuing its commitment to
cross-platform compatibility through both software and hardware, Apple
Computer, Inc. today demonstrated a Power Macintosh system running a
prototype DOS compatibility card with a DX2/50 microprocessor. The
technology demonstration here at PC Expo illustrates a potential hardware
solution that provides DOS and Windows compatibility on the Power
Macintosh platform. When installed in a Macintosh computer, the card would
allow people to run thousands of Macintosh, DOS and Windows programs as
well as exchange files with DOS and Windows users Apple currently provides
DOS and Windows compatibility for its Power Macintosh line of personal
computers through Insignia Solutions' SoftWindows software product.
Cross-platform compatibility has also been provided by Apple's Macintosh
Quadra 610 DOS Compatible system, announced at Fall Comdex last year where
it received Byte Magazine's Best System of Show Award.

Leveraging technology incorporated in the DOS Compatibility Card for the
Macintosh Quadra 610, the prototype card demonstrates the cross-platform
potential of Power Macintosh to run the widest range of software
applications natively in hardware from the leading PC platforms:
Macintosh, DOS and Windows.

"Apple will continue to be relentless in making it easier for DOS and
Windows users to come over to Macintosh, as well as making it easy for
Macintosh users to fit into mixed computing environments," said Ian Diery,
executive vice president and general manager of Apple's Personal Computer
Division. "The technology demonstration underscores our commitment to keep
our customers' options open by developing the most flexible, most
compatible personal computer platform."
