The PowerPC is more POWER than anything Apple. The proof was in AIX, and who actually used the damned things.
Motorola fucked up the 88000, and got Hoodwinked into the PowerPC consortium. What a cluster fuck.
Remember Pink? Talgent? OS/2?
PowerPC had IBM's stench all over it, and it was doomed from day 1. Acorn could make the ARM, but Apple came up dry in terms of an OS, or anything complicated like a CPU.
