MacCentral provides some notes from the IBM Power5 presentation today.
The article details the technology behind the Power5 chip which is scheduled to debut in mid-2004. Rumors of a Power5 derivative chip akin to the PowerPC 970 (Apple's G5) have been circulating for some time, and even IBM's speaker at the MPF suggested that "such a step would be logical again as IBM engineers refine the Power5 design".
Meanwhile, MacCentral reports that the Power6 processor is said to be "well underway".
