Mac-Compatible Upgrade Cards: PowerLogix: Z-Force Specs

PowerLogix Z-Force

The PowerLogix Z-Force is an "upgradable upgrade", which can be described as a processor card with a ZIF socket. Essentially, the card plugs into the daughtercard slot and a more modern ZIF processor module is plugged into the Z-Force. The Z-Force can be used with new ZIF modules and ones pulled from a previously upgraded Power Macintosh G3.
