enables a user to upgrade a system's primary processor card to faster<br />
speeds as<br />
new processors become available, substantially reducing the risk of premature<br />
obsolescence. The high end SuperMac S900 systems also feature a slot for a<br />
secondary processor to support multiprocessing. SuperMac S900 systems support<br />
the Mac OS-compatible industry standard for multiprocessing, DayStar Digital's<br />
nPOWER technology.<br />
"We are pleased to be able to protect users' investments in our<br />
high end<br />
systems by offering the options of upgrading the primary processor and also by<br />
providing a multiprocessor implementation," said Andy Chang, senior vice<br />
president of worldwide sales for UMAX Computer Corporation. "The upgrades are<br />
as simple as plugging a card into a slot on the system board, and can be<br />
quickly<br />
performed by the user since the system enclosure was designed for easy access<br />
through a removable panel."</p>
