Editing Power Macintosh (section)

== Naming ==
The '''''Power Mac''''' brand name was used for Apple's high-end [[Computer tower|tower]] style computers, targeted primarily at businesses and creative professionals, in differentiation to their more compact "iMac" line (intended for home use) and the "eMac" line (for the education markets). They were usually equipped with Apple's newest technologies, and commanded the highest prices among Apple desktop models. Some Power Mac G4 and G5 models were offered in [[Multiprocessing|dual-processor]] configurations.

Prior to the ''Power Mac'' name change, certain ''Power Macintosh'' models were otherwise identical to their lower-cost re-branded siblings sold as the [[Macintosh LC]] and [[Macintosh Performa]], as well as the dedicated [[Apple Workgroup Server]] and [[Apple Workgroup Server|Macintosh Server G3 & G4]] lines. Other past Macintosh lines which used PowerPC processors include the [[PowerBook 5300]] and later models, [[iMac]], [[iBook]] and [[Xserve]] as well as the [[Apple Network Server]], which was technically not a Macintosh.
