The Silicon Valley chip startup, run by chip legend Dan Dobberpuhl-Dobberpuhl, its CEO, presided over the development of the Alpha processor while at Digital Equipment Corp. lifted its veil of secrecy Monday. The company will begin offering a new family of low-power, multicore, PowerPC architecture processors in 2006.

Yeah, cause Apple was the only company to ever use PowerPC and IBM is still crying in their soup over Apple's decision to move to Intel. Sure...
Hate to break it to you, but Apple was a small fry in the PowerPC world. They just popularized the name to drooling home desktop users.
