Terry,

I have a 7410 G4 processor in my B&W.  This same processor can also work in
a Beige G3.  What makes you say they are only for Beige G3's?

Yes, but there are 7410 upgrades for the Beige G3, unlike the B&W G3. The
_real_ reason is that the B&W G3 is missing some cache coherency lines vs.
the Beige G3.

It seems that the Beige was designed with the future in mind whereas the B&W
only had it's present in mind.
