There is a button on the back next to where you plug in the monitor.

The 6200, 6300, and 6320 are notoriously buggy. They have several design flaws on the motherboard.

The 6360 is cool though - it has the newer style updated motherboard. I have one of these in my apartment.

I used to have a Performa 6320. I loved that Mac. It was a PPC 603e. I forget how many mhz it was. I think 120mhz, but not sure. I actually had 2 of them because the place I ordered it from sent me one that the memory and something else was taken out of it. They later said it was the display model and was the last one they had. They didn't want to pay the $75 shipping to take it back, so I got it free and went out to buy another one.

7.5? Woh, what's with the stone age OS? Got a hankering to play Rogue?

Did anyone else play Monkey Shines? That was an awesome game, and the first I can remember that had custom level capabilities. I think that was late 7 or early 8.

I remember playing Spin Doctor on my old Performa, and some frog game that taught you how to read or something.

What happened to them? You didn't throw them away, did you?
