    The Intel PCNs I mentioned also list chips from the ARM-based Axxia AXM5500 series. What seems missing is the AXE4500 series, which was the last ARM-based Axxia series developed by LSI.


    Try ordering one?
    Something tells me that is not a quantity they are going to want to talk about. ;)

    Something tells me as the years go by that I am really going to miss Freescale.

    One? That's still got me grinning.

    Personally, if these are some of our choices, Chinese hardware that may never see the light of day or Intel owned PPC designs, we may have a problem.

    Power8/9 seems to have a future, but the PowerPC processor seems to be on life support.
