If you go to http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=112379 you'll see the 6360 is a 603e running at 160MHz. It'll also tell you about what configuration it shipped in, max ram, etc. Paul ORIGINAL MESSAGE FOLLOWS: Maryann; The portable should have a model number somewhere. That could give me some info as to processor and speed. Need that first. The "Performa" line was an attempt by Apple to sell through non-traditional stores like Sears and such. It was super easy to buy. It came preconfigured and was sold as a total package including mon. and printer. I believe the 6360 may be a "Power PC" and faster than the older Macs. It may also have remote infrared capabilities. You could see that in the small red window on the front. I am glad that you stuck with Mac an got an iMac. Wanna sell the 6360??? Paul Mika
