download I got 616mb in 24m23sec on Comcast. I thought that was pretty fast.

They'll likely keep supporting PPC, now that Power 6 is out. Of course, you need a liquid cooling system for Power 6 (great new maintenance revenue stream for those massively parallel Power 6 clusters!) Computer techs may now need ASE (automotive) certification to work on those, just like some auto techs will need to become network engineers to diagnose ethernet LAN problems on some of the new cars using LANs to integrate all the various computer controlled subsystems.
