Unseen PowerPC: the Cores that Didn’t Make It

MacSlash has an original editorial regarding different PowerPC projects that never made it to shipping. It mentions things like the obscure PowerPC 615 that could run x86 instructions, or the PowerPC 750VX, which would have been IBM’s answer to the Motorola G4. This article reads like a requiem, but lest we forget: here, here, here, and of course, here. I’m starting to believe IBM won’t miss Apple all that much.
