Performance Optimization With Enhanced RISC
RISC microprocessor developed by a consortium of IBM, Apple and Motorola (sometimes refers to the Power Macintosh, the first commercially available micro computer using this chip). WWWebfx Home Page
Any one of the RISC-based processing chips 601, 603, 604, 604e, G3, or G4 designed by Apple, IBM, and Motorola.
The PowerPC is a RISC processor developed in a collaborative effort between IBM, Apple, and Motorola. It is currently produced by a few different companies, of course including its original developers. A few different OSes run on PowerPC based machines, including Mac OS, AIX, Solaris, Windows NT, Linux, Mac OS X, BeOS, and AmigaOS. At any given time, the fastest processor in the world is usually either a PowerPC or an Alpha, but sometimes SPARCs and PA-RISCs make the list, too.
RISC processor developed by Apple, IBM, and Motorola and used with Macintosh® computers and supporting several different operating systems including the MacOS and Microsoft® Windows® NT.
Performance Optimized With Enhanced RISC Personal Computer - IBM/ Apple Computer-Familie mit MPC60x-Mikroprozessor als CPU
A family of CPU chips designed by Apple, IBM and Motorola
A family of RISC-based computer processors (chips) developed jointly by IBM, Apple Computer, and Motorola Corporation and used in IBM RS/6000 systems and Apple Macintosh computers.
a microprocessor designed to meet a standard which was jointly designed by Motorola, IBM, and Apple
A name of a new generation of computer CPU chips that offer significant performance gains over older technology. These PowerPC chips are at the heart of the new Power Macintosh machines and will replace older Macintosh models completely by late 1995.
the processor series used on Macintosh computers from 1994 through 2006.
A family of CPUs designed by Apple, IBM and Motorola.
Brand name of the RISC processors used by Macintosh computers. Developed by the A.I.M. alliance - a cooperative business venture between Apple, IBM and Motorola.
A computer containing a high-powered microprocessor. They were developed as part of a joint venture among IBM, Apple and Motorola in an effort to compete with Intel and Microsoft. The first of the PowerPCs was the Power Mac introduced in 1994.
A processor developed by Apple and IBM for use in Macintosh computers.
a family of microprocessors manufactured by IBM and Motorola, used in PowerMacs and some IBM workstations. See 601, 602, 603, 604, native, Fat Binary.
A super powerful RISC processor PC jointly developed by IBM, Apple and Motorola, designed to run any PC operating system (MS-DOS, UNIX, Windows, OS/2, Mac OS. etc.). Featured in Apple's line of "PowerMac" computers.
