I'm still thinking about picking up a Quicksilver 2002 to use as a
light-to-medium-duty server. Power Architecture is a great and
efficient platform, too bad Apple didn't follow it through.
DISCLAIMER: I work for IBM as a contractor, but I liked their products
even before I started working with them. :)

As emulators go, Rosetta - the black box that makes PPC stuff run on

Now we need the opposite emulator, the one that will allow future
Intel x86 only code to run on our PPC Macs. I doubt this will ever
exist, but it would certainly be welcomed.
Well, the Macintosh is no stranger to CISC/x86 emulation! CISC emulation was
already present in the PowerPC/Classic Mac OS era in order to run Motorola
68k applications. And x86 emulation was used on Windows-emulation programs
like VirtualPC.
