It is nice to see PPC and other platforms remain on the desktop. Having multiple architectures provides flexibility and forces the writing of good code. I hope that TerraSoft is successful with this and also with working with Sony and Genesi and other players in the PPC realm keeping the desktop and server markets as diverse and competitive as possible.
