The Apple Macintosh Performa 588CD features a 33 MHz 68LC040 processor, 8 MB of RAM, and a 500 MB hard drive in a relatively-compact all-in-one case with a 14" color display. The Performa 588CD appears to be identical to the Performa 580CD, but perhaps varied by software bundle. This model was sold in Asia and Europe, but the educational version, the LC 580, was sold worldwide.
