Download or read book PowerPC Microprocessor Common Hardware Reference Platform written by Apple Computer, Inc. and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2012-06-25 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book defines the architecture requirements and minimum system requirementsfor a computer system that is designed to become an open industry standard.These requirements provide a description of the devices, interfaces, and dataformats required to design and build a PowerPC-based computer. This standard isdesigned to provide software compatibility for several operating environments.Systems built to these requirements can use industry-standard componentscurrently found in IBM-compatible and Apple® Macintosh® personal computers. Thesesystems are expected to run various future versions of operating systemsincluding Apple Mac OSTM, IBM AIXTM and PowerPCTM Editions of IBM OS/2 Warp ConnectTM,Microsoft Windows NTTM Workstation, Novell NetwareTM, and SunSoft SolarisTM. This book is the primary source of information for anyone developing a hardwareplatform, an operating system, or hardware component to be part of thesestandard systems. It describes the hardware-to-operating-system interface thatis essential to anyone building hardware platforms and provides the minimumsystem configurations that platform designers must meet when building a standardplatform. Component manufacturers require this information to producecompatible chips and adapters to use on these platforms, and software developersrequire the information on mandatory functions and documented interfaces. The architecture is intended to support a range of PowerPC microprocessor-based system implementations including portable, desktop, and server classsystems, and allows multiple operating-system implementations across a widerange of environments and functions. This enables new hardware and softwareenhancements that are necessary for the development of improved userinterfaces, higher performance, and broader operating environments.

Excerpt: The Mac Mini (marketed as Mac mini) is a small form factor desktop computer manufactured by Apple Inc. Like earlier mini-ITX PC designs, it is uncommonly small for a desktop computer: 7.7 inches (19.7 cm) square and 1.4 inches (3.6 cm) tall. It weighs 2.7 pounds (1.22 kg). Models prior to July 2011 included a built-in optical disc drive. Models prior to 2010 used an external power supply and were narrower but taller at 2 x 6.5 x 6.5 inches (50.8 x 165.1 x 165.1 mm). The Mac Mini is currently one of three desktop computers in the current Macintosh lineup, the other two being the iMac and Mac Pro. The Mac Mini was the first recent Macintosh desktop to ship without a keyboard or mouse. In addition, there is no included display. The primary intended market for the Mac Mini was for "switchers" (users moving from a traditional Windows PC to Mac) who would already own a compatible display, keyboard, and mouse. Other customers could easily purchase these if needed. A special version of the computer is also intended for use as a server in a small network. It includes Lion Server and has a second hard drive. The updated unibody Mini is notable as Apple's first computer to include an HDMI video port to...
