Totally uninteresting unless you're doing something embedded, I would say (hint, only 7-series and possibly 8-series chips are any good for desktops. 8 because that's where the G5 is surfacing...)

- Up to 300 MHz core speed
And people were complaining about the G3 @ 600MHz :lol:

Well, to be fair:
It's an embedded chip with SIMD and a few other nifty things. 300MHz core is plenty for a LOT of applications (hey, I'm running an embedded 486 here, stop laughing :-) )

Hi
I wonder about the benchmark result of the new CPU (SPEC, Mips, MFlops etc). Also the price and power consumption.
There is a FPGA with Quad IBM PowerPC 405D cores (Virtex II). Perhaps similar FPGA can be build using this new CPU.

Hmm, I hadn't seen that FPGA before. That's one awesome beast. Guess who'se surfing through the user manual right now :-)
