with 3.x OS , the ppc can be used to free the 68k on the following tasks for example:
- picture datatypes
- mp3 decoding / encoding
- movie playback
- archiving (there is LHA_WOS)
- many ppc specific progs/games that need warpOS/powerUP , see aminet...

actually see the ppc as a faster 68k helper cpu...
