PowerPC

IBM+Apple's retarded child

The PowerPC processor is widely regarded as the shittiest processor to ever be made. Here is a list of companies that used the PowerPC processor in their products:

• Apple
  • These fags used the PowerPC chips in their Macs until Steve Jobs decided to switch to Windows dick-flavored dildos (true, but irrelevant here -ed) Intel.
• IBM
  • IBM engaged in what was perhaps one of the greatest troll moves the computer industry has ever seen. To convince John Sculley that they were committed to the project, they released several PowerPC desktops and even wrote a version of OS/2 for it. Then, once IBM was sure that all of Apple's resources were tied up writing code for the new abomination, they pulled the plug on all their consumer PowerPC projects and left the macfags holding the bag. IBM was wearing their trollface for at least another 2 years, until the Intel version of OS/2 ended up getting fucked over by Windows.

• Vidya Consoles
  • The Nintendo Gamecube, Wii, and the Microsoft Xbox 360 all used some version of the PowerPC processor. In the console market, the PowerPC performed much like it had in the personal computer market; there were No Gaems, a wealth of bad design and stupid gimmicks and, most notably, constant overheating and hardware failure.

The PowerPC chips did not even break the 1GHz clock speed mark until at least 3 years ago. This is why nobody actually bought a Mac until Apple switched to Intel.
