The Workgroup Server 9150 is the only Workgroup Server for which an equivalent Power Mac model was never released.

Built into a modified Quadra 950 case, the 9150 has four NuBus slots and a processor direct slot (PDS). Like first-generation Power Macs, the 9150 uses system memory for video (up to 615 KB, depending on resolution and bit-depth). For best performance, add a video card instead of using motherboard video. See our NuBus Video Card Guide for information on adding a video card.

The 9150 was upgraded to 120 MHz April 1995. It was replaced by the 9500 in May 1996.
