They're nicknames for some of the last PowerMac G4s which were dual-boot
machines.

To be specific "Quicksilver" was made in three general versions
(Quicksilver, Quicksilver 2002 and Quicksilver 2002 ED). All of them were
dual-boot machines and the last one was discon. about 8/02.

The Mirrored Drive Door PMG4 was, also, dual boot and was avilable in a
1.25G dual processor version. The MDD was discon. about 1/03. There was a
second MDD, called Mirrored Drive Doors 2003, which was actually
introduced after the first was was discon. and after the Firewire 800
machine (which was not dual-boot) was introduced. MDD 2003 was a
dual-boot unit and was available in only a 1.25G single and a 1.25G dual
processor config. It was discon. about 6/04 and was the final PowerMac
which would boot off the Classic Mac OS.
