'''WARNING''' - This page is a Work In Progress! (Last updated June 30, 2026 for MAME 0.288+).

Designed by a team led by Steve Jobs, the Macintosh was Apple's follow-up to the Apple II series that finally stuck, after many attempts. Macintosh computers are still being made today, albeit with very different hardware and software technology. Macintosh computers have used 4 different processor architectures over time; PowerPC was the first of 3 major transitions, and it began in 1994.
