I'm confused (probably very!).

I thought the CHRP machines were pre-"New World", in Mac-speak, meaning Beige 
G3s, and that with the B&W G3s, Apple had abandoned the CHRP.

The Apple Network Server, which is supposedly pre-CHRP, is loosely based on 
the Tsunami (9500) architecture, but it has no MacOS ROM support, so it can't 
boot MacOS, although it does have Open Firmware support, and can boot AIX 
(and Drexel's version of Linux).
