The second best selling microprocessor in the world today and he says it's dead!


Second?  I could see maybe fourth or so after ARM, MIPS, and x86.  Probably even further down the ladder with 6502 and 680x0 total sales thrown into the mix.  It's an OK embedded CPU, but let us not over value the worth of the CPU.

I always asumed ARM was ppc as it does seem to run ppc software ?!?!?    O well i should read more


Try Wiki page for more info.  Porting to ARM is always a good thing, even for AROS.
