Power Macintosh 8500/120

Compared with the Power Macintosh 8100/110, this model replaced NuBus with three PCI slots and the PowerPC 601 with a 120 MHz PowerPC 604 on a removable card. It builds in composite and S-video input and output, which needed the AV card on the 8100. It keeps the Quadra 800 minitower case.
