Power Computing was the
Apple Macintosh clone maker that made a (relativley) brief appearance on the market between early 1995 and mid 1997, when Apple Computers allowed Macintosh clones to be sold on the market. Power Computing made several lines, including the
PowerCenter,
PowerTower,
Power Base,
Power Wave and
Power Curve, which were comperable in speed to, but less expensive than their
counterparts.
Power Computing computers were
revolutionary in many areas. To this day, Power Computing machines are still the only computers to have both standard
PC and
Macintosh ports, as a built in feature.
