About This Developer Note

This developer note describes the Macintosh PowerBook 2400c computer, a new computer based on the same architecture as the PowerBook 3400 computer but smaller and lighter.

For information about the PowerBook 3400, see “Supplemental Reference Documents,” later in this preface.

This developer note is intended to help hardware and software developers design products that are compatible with the Macintosh products described here.
