Hardware Description

The Macintosh LC 520 (codename: "Hook") was introduced in June 1993, and was the first of the LC 500 series of Macintoshes: The LC 500 case design was larger than the compact Macs, with a significantly larger screen. The 520 was discontinued in February 1994, when it was replaced by both the faster but otherwise essentially unchanged Macintosh LC 550 and the new, 68LC040-equipped Macintosh LC 575.
