It's a Umax clone and it has a few differences from Macs:
The hard drive is IDE instead of SCSI, but Drive Setup should work fine with
it.
The stock CD-ROM drive is SCSI, but not an Apple brand, so newer versions of
the CD-ROM driver extension will not work with it. You must either use a 3rd
party CD driver, like Intech Speedtools, or modify the Apple CD driver to
work with it.
The RAM is 168 pin DIMMs, like for PCI Macs, but it is 2k refresh instead of
the 4k refresh like Macs use. If you use 4k RAM in this machine it will only
see half the RAM.
