MPC7450 RISC Miicroprocessor Family Reference Manual.  More wading  
in the latter because it covers all the MPC-74XX series.

I had no idea that was the case. Where can I read more about that?

I didn't want to just say Intel Mac, since MacPorts theoretically  
runs on non-Macs as well, many of which will be x86-based and thus  
should be able to use wine.
