Due to the company wide NDA I'm under I signed as an inclusion to my contract, I have to be careful what I say:

I can say however, that we had a visit from the Motorola reps, with the basis of thier presentation being a powerpoint slide show containing the information in that .pdf.... perhaps I shouldn't say more.

But an assumption can be made that the information in that .pdf is "not wrong".

As I understand it, the 5th Generation of PowerPC ("G5") will have a different core archictecture to the previous Generations. In English that means code for PPC isn't going to run on G5 Cores. They need new compilers etc - look out for the term e500...
