DVT (Design Validation Test) prototype of the Power Macintosh G3 'Gossamer' mini tower system, with a label on the rear identifying it as a "Powermac G3/266 MT W/O ZIP." The rear also boasts three PCI slots (one of which is populated), and ports for mouse and keyboard, modem, display, and audio. In very good to fine cosmetic condition; the system powers on but does not chime.
Introduced in 1997, the 'Gossamer' logic board was used in Apple's Power Macintosh G3 series. It featured a PCI-based architecture, replacing the older NuBus standard, and supported PowerPC G3 processors for improved performance. The board was known for its modular design, making upgrades easier compared to previous Macintosh models.
