Another session with the tiny tinkerers of Henge primary.
For readers who are not 'Mac-heads', the Power PC partnership was an attempt by IBM and Apple to produce a fast 64bit chip to drive PCs that would put a dent in the then market leading share of Intel. IBM would then be producing PC 'clones' running the Mac OS. It failed due to bickering and third-party delays in producing the envisaged 'wizard' new chip. Of course, this was before the return of Steve Jobs to the Apple fold... following which, everything the company dreamt up turned to gold.
