PPC seems not to be completely dead (yet). At least Freescale added a new member to their more or less famous 512x family - the 5125.
I actually didn't think the 5125 would make it...

but IMHO it is nice to see Freescale not having abandoned ppc completetly (yet).
It has been in the pipeline for a few years. This PPC family still has use of course. Particularly in the automotive industry, which is what it targets. Freescale has a PPC license, they have invested a lot in it, etc. But as I see things, there is no reason to why not the Freescale *ARM* series of CPU's wouldn't fit into that segment in the future...
MorphOS is Amiga
done right! MorphOS NG will be AROS
done right!
