Take advantage of the added speed of Apple's System 8 and 8.1 with the PowerPC native Finder.

Memory Capabilities: The 5200/6200 logic board has two 72-pin SIMM sockets. With this logic board you can have up to 64MB of RAM. You can easily transfer the SIMM from your slower logic board to the 5200/6200 logic board. You then can populate the second SIMM slot with a new SIMM or an existing 72-pin SIMM from an earlier upgrade.

System and Tool Requirements: A Phillips screw driver and an optional antistatic grounding strap (available at most computer hardware stores).

Upgrade Installation: Prior to installing the MicroMac 5200/6200 PowerPC Logic Board Trade-up you will need to update or reinstall the System OS 7.5.1 - 8.1 software so that it is compatible with the 5200/6200 logic board. This is a simple procedure that is outlined in the documentation that comes with the 5200/6200 PowerPC Logic Board Trade-up. Once you have the correct System software installed, the installation involves removing the current 68040 logic board from your computer (which easily unplugs from the inner case) and following the instructions in "Installing the P5200/6200 logic board."

Time Requirement: About one hour; 45 minutes are required for System Software installation, 15 minutes are required for the hardware exchange of the logic board.
