I recently replaced my Apple IIgs with a Macintosh Performa 405. On my IIgs I used a Kensington System Saver. Can I use the Kensington System Saver with the Performa?
Kensington doesn't recommend using this unit on a Macintosh computer. The System Saver was designed to add a fan and surge protection to the Apple IIgs. The Performa 405 has a fan built-in and therefore requires no additional fan. You can purchase a surge protector from most hardware stores and have all the features the System Saver afforded.

Kensington also offered a System Saver for the compact Macintosh computers such as the 128, 512K, 512KE, SE, Plus, SE/30, Classic, Classic II and Performa 200. As with the System Saver for the Apple IIgs, this System Saver will not fit on the Performa 405 or Macintosh LC computers.
