Apple g4 867 quicksilver computer

Released in 2001, and updated in 2002, the PowerMac G4 Quicksilver introduced the silver case which was the trademark of the later PowerMac G4s.  Expandable and upgradeable, the Quicksilvers were very popular machines at the high end of Apple's range.  All of the Quicksilvers have at least a CD-RW optical drive, with higher-end option having a SuperDrive DVD-RW. All Quicksilvers can boot natively into the OS 9 operating system.

The Power Macintosh G4 (Quicksilver) series is quite similar to the "Digital Audio" series that it replaced, but the higher-end models -- the Power Macintosh G4/867 (Quicksilver) and Power Macintosh G4/800 DP (Quicksilver) -- have faster processors with larger level 3 caches. All models have faster, and/or more capable, optical drives.

Like earlier Power Macintosh G4 models, the Power Macintosh G4 (Quicksilver) uses the case design introduced with the Power Macintosh G3 (Blue & White) -- complete with a fold down door on the side that makes upgrading very easy -- but its silver, which gives the series its name.
