oh another speculation thread, or is it a joke.this have nothing to do with a PPC, a single core is really slow with in order, if you have multithreadeds programs it run fast.See here.

http://arstechnica.com/hardware/news/2007/08/MIT-startup-raises-multicore-bar-with-new-64-core-CPU.ars

"""
The short-pipeline, in-order, three-issue cores implement a MIPS-derived VLIW ISA with a few important and peculiar features.
"""

thats great news for compiling, because compile programs as OWB, chrome, firefox is so extreme slow and need hours that really demotivate to do it.

but on desktop, most users notice that most time more than 2 cores not need.

I hope we see end of year what is ambitious project.If not, maybe they reach a better place in the Vaporware of the year.

2003 they reach only place 9 with amiga OS4.

but what happen if Hyperions SUper project is Port Duke nukem forever to OS4 ?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duke_Nukem_Forever

"""
DNF team fired and 3D Realms downsized - May 2009
"""

Maybe Hyperion port it to OS4 and all that love to play it duke nukem forever now, must buy a SAM.

but if thats possible that Hyperion can port a modern game is the next question.i see not that hypeiron port in the last years a modern game to Mac or Linux.
