The main problem with PPC is that it's sole users are Game Consoles, which means it's development is in that line.
No they aren't. They are in everything from Set-top-box's to Phones, PDA's, routers, washing machines etc.
Do you have any links? The only PPC based product (other than my PowerBook and my BlizzPPC) I've ever seen which wasn't an XBox was an old router I had... Everything else I've seen has been ARM based... I probably have at least 10 ARMs in my house alone! Oh and a MIPS device too...
Xbox used Intel, the 360 uses PPC, as did the Gamecube, as the Wii does. Cell has a PPE core...
Coincidentally, the Wii has an ARM core inside it's Hollywood chip...
