RiscPC 600

The Risc PC (Personal computer for RISC OS) is the successor of the Archimedes line from Acorn Computers Ltd and is the professional brother of the A7000.

The first model, Risc PC 600, was introduced in 1994 and stayed in production up to 2003.

The Risc PC, using the energy saving ARM RISC CPU, used nowadays in nearly all smart-devices like phones and tvs.

Expansions can be added by adding slices on top. There's also an option to expand/add a CPU.

Our machine has a StrongARM running at 233MHz and a 486DX4 running at 100MHz, so this machine is capable of running Windows 95 inside the ROM- or disk-booted RiscOS 3.7.
