Mike,

You've got it right.  PowerPC was designed by colaboration with IBM, Apple,
and Motorola.  It was based on IBMs earlier generation of "POWER" RISC
processors.  Afterword, Motorola and Apple took the designs one way, and IBM
went another.  Now, IBM can significantly out-perform Motorola designs.

Stephane,

I thought that the 400 runs on the POWER processor, and that the Power PC
processor is not exactly the same thing (maybe a subset of the POWER
architecture).

Yes they both run on power pc.
Apple is one of ibm big customer.
And i never understand why ibm don't TALK with apple.
And i think it will be a better technology merge between apple and as400,
really better than m$ft and ibm.
For example the lastest power pc 970 will be on apple.

Wintel outside :-)

Didn't I read somewhere that iSeries and Apple's will be both be using the
same processors?  Wouldn't _that_ be interesting...
