With Pivot software version 3.2.1, the Color Pivot will be fully functional on the built-in DRAM connector of the Power Mac 6100, 7100, or 8100 running System 7.1.2, 7.5, or 7.5.1. A Power Mac Display Adapter is required to make the physical connection to the HDI-45 port possible, however, and only the Power Mac 6100 ships with this adapter (Apple item# M2681LL/A). Power Mac 7100 and 8100 users must buy the adapter separately from an Apple Authorized Reseller. The Power Mac 7100 and 8100 also ship in a configuration which allows from one to four megabytes of video RAM (VRAM) to be installed on an Apple graphics card installed in the Processor Direct Slot. Pivoting will be fully functional on this card, and depending on the amount of VRAM present, can support thousands of colors on the 7100 with two megabytes of VRAM, and millions of colors on the 8100 with four megabytes of VRAM. Pivoting is not supported on the Apple AV card in any of the Power Mac AV configurations, though the HDI-45
