Like its predecessor PReP , it was conceptualized as a design to allow various operating systems to run on an industry standard hardware platform, and specified

Unlike PReP , CHRP incorporated elements of the Power Macintosh architecture and was intended to support the classic Mac OS and NetWare , in addition to the four operating systems that had been ported to PReP at the time ( Windows NT , OS/2 , Solaris , and AIX ). CHRP did not receive industry-wide adoption, however. The only systems to ship with actual CHRP hardware are certain members of IBM's RS/6000 series running AIX , and small amount of Motorola PowerStack workstations. Mac OS 8 contains support for CHRP and New World Power Macintosh computers are partially based on CHRP and PReP. Power.org has
