powerpc is a CPU architecture, like ARM, x86_64, MIPS, Itanium, Alpha/AXP. It isn't a typical Windows-like hardware in a PC. While some AIX servers and workstations were built using it, so where Apples, before they changed to Intel x86_64 CPUs. I think we can still buy Power-based systems from IBM, but I haven't since around 2008.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IBM_PO...essors#Power10 shows that the CPU is built on a 7nm process and released in 2021. My experience was with Power4 and Power5 CPUs. It was amazing what $2500 could get in a workstation.
The M1 Apple CPU has taken over Macs in the last year.
