Re: PowerPC chips @ 4 and 5 Gigahertz in 2007 per IBM

Pentium 4 was supposed to scale up to 10GHz, but they failed to reach 4GHz. I believe it's a bit premature to shout this off the rooftops.

Great news for MorphOS & Amiga OS 4.0 owners I hope!

Heh heh, very funny. This is Power6, not PowerPC. Power CPUs are meant for servers, not desktops. Prices are set accordingly (yes, these things are quite damn expensive).

Frankly, the topic should be fixed. It's 'Power6 chips', not 'PowerPC chips'.
