The first Power Architecture Technical Briefing (developerWorks)
developerWorks talks
with Stanley Kwong, who will be giving a technical briefing about Power
Architecture in the People's Republic of China. "Stan Kwong: I'm in
charge of the worldwide technical briefings and also a lot of the technical
events. You can kind of look at us as the evangelists for IBM, the
face-to-face evangelists. I started with developerWorks about four years
ago. Given the background of how we try to evangelize, specifically in
terms of the Web and the developer online community, IBM started feeling
that there was a major need in terms of the entire world to have
evangelists going out there to talk a lot about our technology and also
about products. So from a very small staff, we began doing technical
briefings."

Nintendo also, IIRC.
Also, the PS2 developers' workstations will be have the Cell CPU (Power + vector cores).
Perhaps this will lead to other workstations with Power.
