Big shame, narrowing of the market, and probably the end of the PowerPC.

I wouldn't count the PowerPC out entirely, as it will continue to be used in game platforms (and maybe other embedded platforms?). But yes, in the desktop hardware market, it seems there's now only one game in town.

LLVM will support PowerPC for a very long time, even if Apple magically decided to drop PPC tommorow (which, obviously, it isn't). -Chris -- http://nondot.org/sabre/ http://llvm.cs.uiuc.edu/
