"The PowerPC 7xx is a family of third generation 32-bit PowerPC microprocessors designed and manufactured by IBM and Motorola (now Freescale Semiconductor). This family is called the PowerPC G3 by its well-known customer Apple Inc, which introduced it on November 10, 1997. The term \"PowerPC G3\" is often, and incorrectly, imagined to be a microprocessor when in fact a number of microprocessors from different vendors have been used."@en . . .
