IBM AIX begins supporting PPC, Mac goes Intel.....


Huh?  AIX has supported the POWER architecture since the beginning.  So nothing new here.

As for how it will affect the Amiga, I don't think it will at all.
Time to move on.  Bye Amiga.org.  :(

The quickest way for PPC to get back on the desktop is the availability of systemboards and CPU's to the public. IBM has to lead/help here. They have Power/PPC systemboards(yes I work with their servers).


IBM has all but abandoned the desktop market with the sale of it's PC business last year.  IBM survives by innovation and selling services, not marketing low margin commodities like PCs, hard drives, etc.
