Anyone ever heard of a main board that has dual cpu
one X86 and one PPC.  Would it even be possible.


Possible: sure.
Done: Probably not.

You can get PPC based PCI cards though but you'll probably pay $$$ for them.

With the 970 and Opteron wouldn't it be possible to make such a board? Both use Hypertransport...


Only Opteron has HT at the moment - but IBM have just joined the HT forum :-)
