GenesisMP Preface – About Genesis MP
◆ 9
Genesis MP is Built for Expandability
The large number of DIMM memory slots allow you to plug in additional DIMMs
without removing existing memory. The large power supply and many drive bays mean
that you won’t outgrow your Genesis.
The full-access design of Genesis MP’s case makes expansion even easier. Just open
the side door and you can add storage devices, memory, and PCI expansion cards with
ease. By comparison, the Power Macintosh 9500 requires complete disassembly of the
case to access memory slots.

Genesis MP
A Next-Generation Solution that Works Alongside Today’s Technology
Since Genesis MP runs the Mac OS, your transition to multiprocessing speed is an
evolution, not an experiment. You can retain your favorite applications and working
environment. Genesis MP accepts your existing SCSI peripherals and network
connections, and you can add even faster peripherals in the future via the PCI bus.
