it was a joint venture with novell and caldera employees had exposure to the resources, a year or so after the project fell apart.

a lot more people had exposure to it than you'd think. it sounds very interesting to us, but honestly, it was probably pretty obvious to everyone involved that it was a bad idea unless apple was serious about dropping ppc



It wasn’t about dropping PPC. It was a project that was killed because they moved to PPC instead of Intel.


apple began evaluating ppc in 1991 and it was the stronger choice in the org, from what i've heard. so yes, it was about dropping ppc
