The catalyst motherboard used in the TAM and the 6400 is crap in my
opinion. It's seems to be derived from the performa 630 family, which
was a brilliant design for the 68000, but was never intended for the
PowerPC.

It looks cool, and certainly presages many futuristic design elements,
but the guts of it are lame.
