The Apple Macintosh WGS 95 features a 33 MHz 68040 processor, 16 MB or 32 MB of RAM, either a 230 MB or 1.0 GB hard drive, and a PDS card with a level 2 cache and a secondary SCSI bus in the expandable tower case of the Quadra 900. This model is unique because it runs the MacOS, but is only full-featured running A/UX, Apple's Unix OS; so one could argue that this is barely a Macintosh, in spite of its name. In the picture, the WGS 95 is on the left.
