    Because networking at 10s or 100s of gigabits per second can be rather processor intensive?



    The G4 is used A LOT in networking products. Have a look around freescale's website.



    info about the 8641D



    info about the G5. I don't see any info there about the dual-core version though. There's probably some info on the site somewhere if you look hard enough.



    Haven't linked to intel because PPC is much, much better in embedded applications such as networking.
