You are correct.  The PCI macs include the 7200, 7500, 7600, 8500, and 9500.
I think there are a couple of new 6XXX models (6400?) that are also
PCI machines with 603 chips.  AFAIK, among the PCI machines, only the 7200 
and 7500 shipped with 601's.  The 7500 uses the same type of processor
daughtercard as the [89]500, so it can be upgraded to a 604.
