soon to be replaced by PowerPC based SoC (Systems on a Chip) modules the size of a cigarette pack that plug into a "FuturePC" port on the back of an LCD monitor

That sounds nice indeed, but GNU/Linux is not quite there. We still lack some eßential proprietary applications on the GNU PowerPC, like a more mature, up-to-date Java, MS.Net and specially Flash.

I would love to know of concrete plans towards that.

I have predicted for quite some time that Microsoft will buy AMD

That would leave a WinAMD vs Lintel war for the PC market. It sounds strange, but stranger things have happened.
