Surprisingly, Californian Apple, known in global computing, announced the launch of the compatible Macintosh DOS.

Technically, this compatible computer will be the traditional Quadra 610 model, but in the DPS connector (Direct Procesor Slot) you will have a 486 coprocessor. The user will have two simultaneous environments and the video card will be able to use two monitors: one for the Macintosh system and one for the Windows system. This compatible computer, 500 dollars more than the unsupported one (70,000 pesetas. or 2,500 pounds more).

Through this step, the Apple house has begun to approach the world of PC computers and one day has created the hope to market the “universal computer”. Then it will not be necessary to use the word “compatible”.
