Ah yes, but the switched from PPC to x86... ;-)
PPC is a great design. We use that here, and when we moved to a new
architecture, despite a 5x clock in crease it ran at the same or lesser speed
than the 200Mhz part. (We have a lot of i/o, which PPC excels at)
Incidentally, we are looking for 2 embedded software developers (full time,
Baltimore, MD). If anyone knows anyone who might be interested, send them my
way please. I will say our embedded use of Qt was cancelled (long story, but
not my fault ;-) ) so no Qt for now, but it is a possibility again in 2-5 years.

Note that their current CPU team (ex. P. A. Semi) was once known as developers
of PowerPC-compatible CPU, so who knows...
