The '''PowerPC 601''' was the first generation of microprocessors to support a subset of the [[PowerPC]] [[instruction set]]. It was
introduced at the same time as [[IBM]] [[POWER2]] line of processors. Basically it a simpified and thus cheaper version of the [[RISC Single Chip]] (RSC) processor, with support for PowerPC instructions not in the [[POWER]] instruction set added. The '''PowerPC 601''' was developed in co-operation of IBM, [[Motorola]] and [[Apple Computer]].
