No. The G5 was the last of the PowerPC chip line used by Apple, which  
was the main competitor to the INtel X86 chip line.

Sort of the Macy's and Gimbel's, Hatfield's and McCoy's or Capulet's  
and Montague's of the CPU world.

The iMac list is for the iMac questions, G3,4,5 or Intel and has a lot
