If you read the thread, you'll see that I have said this more than once.

That doesn't mean that there was no connection between PowerMac having a
PowerPC chip in it. The first PowerPC chip was in a PowerMac; the first
PowerMac had a PowerPC chip in it.

PowerMacs are not PowerBooks. PowerBooks are not PowerMacs.
