I know IBM eServer P series servers used them back in the day. I had a P series with a PPC 604e @ 375MHz running AIX 5.
*edit* by adapter, do you mean a card? If so, mine was on a SECC if i remember correctly. |

| No, I think that in this case "adapter" means the PCB with pins. I think the CPU itself is the little dark square in the middle (CBGA-255 package), and the rest is the adapter (something like a PQFP 386SX on a PGA adapter). What I'd like to know is what PPC-based machine/mainboard has a socket for that pin configuration... |

Oh, okay. Well, mine was a SECC slot (like Apple used, or similar to a Pentium II / III cartridge) |

The PGA adapter is for blue & white Power Macs G3 and PM4G PCI (Yikes!). Not sure about first iMacs, but it's possible that these were used in them as well.
Later G4's used a multi-pin flat connector boards. |

. I mean, turning my question into a new thread in another section of the forum... Anyway, I was referring to the PPC604e sold here:
