PPCP
(PPCP, PReP - PowerPC Reference
Platform, formerly CHRP - Common Hardware Reference Platform)
An open system standard, designed by IBM, intended to ensure
compatibility among PowerPC-based systems built by different
companies. The PReP standard specifies the PCI bus, but
will also support ISA, MicroChannel and PCMCIA.
PReP-compliant systems will be able to run the Macintosh OS,
OS/2, WorkplaceOS, AIX, Solaris, Taligent and
Windows NT. IBM systems will (of course) be PReP-compliant.
Apple's first PowerPC Macintoshes will not be compliant,
but future ones may be.
