The 5300 was sold to the education market primarily while the "Performa" version sold to the general public. Not an overly powerful machine as it runs on a 100MHz PowerPC 603e, and these models tend to be heavy and annoying to move around.

The equivalent model in a desktop design is likely the Power Macintosh 6300, and the fastest model to share this all-in-one design is the Power Macintosh 5500.

General Information

The Power Macintosh 5300/100 LC features a 100 MHz PowerPC RISC 603e processor with 256K Level 2 Cache, 16MB of RAM (expandable to 64MB) and a 1.2GB hard disk drive. It also includes an Apple SuperDrive floppy disk drive, two expansion slots including one that can be used to add a low-cost, high-speed Ethernet networking connection, and an internal AppleCD 600I Plus tray-loading quad-speed CD-ROM drive. Built-in multimedia technologies include a video-out connector, video capture card, TV tuner, and 16-bit stereo sound in and out.
