Apple Computer Co. , Ltd. announced a new product in the Macintosh Performa series on May 28th. There are four new products, Performa 5260/5270 for the home market and 5410/5420 for business use.
The new Performa is designed to be even easier for beginners to use, such as making it possible to print out simply by connecting a printer cable. In addition to Internet software such as Netscape Navigator and Eudora Pro, ClarisWorks, addressing software, English-Japanese dictionary, etc. are included as standard.

The 5410/5420 is equipped with a PowerPC 603e (120MHz) CPU and has one PCI bus slot to provide performance that can be used for business purposes. The 5420 is equipped with a video input, TV / FM radio tuner, and 256KB of secondary cache memory.
