Well, Apple was notorious for being proprietary. They refused to comply with any AT or ATX Form Factor standards used by the IBM "clone" (PC) industry. If you wanted to attach, upgrade, or replace any part of the Apple computer, you had to buy it from Apple.

They got away with it because they were so big and because their products were of high quality. But their parts were not compatible with PCs.
