    The article seems to be clear that as of now, it is nearly impossible to get a PPC license. The article does say that IBM might change that, but we're talking G3s here, not Motorola's G4/G5.



    Since this isn't really talking about Future Apple Hardware, I'm moving this to General Discussion (which has more of a focus on tech news like this).
