They still used Motorola RISC chips back then, didn't they? Since they went Intel, I've not seen a big Apple aftermarket hardware push.

There was a good one for a while after the switch to Intel. Mac Pros used nVidia and ATI video cards. There were PCIe soundcards you could throw in there. But yeah. There was about a 6 year period where you could legitimately run Mac hardware as if it were PC hardware, and that era is done.
