MacWeek reports that IBM href="http://macweek.zdnet.com/2000/06/11/0613more ppc.html">gave some more details of the 750CX (350-550mhz) and 750CXe (500-700mhz) at href="http://www.chipanalyst.com/epf/">the Embedded Processor Forum 2000.
"Peter Sandon, Senior PowerPC Processor Architect for IBM Microelectronics and the architect of the 750CX processor, said the new chips were designed for high-end embedded and desktop systems--possibly including Macs, though that decision depends on Apple, one of IBM's major PowerPC customers."
Of note, the new chips contain only 256k of on-chip L2 cache, and provides no pinouts for off-chip L2 cache. The smaller size of the 750CX's mean lower production costs.

Apple's first foldable iPhone, dubbed the "iPhone Ultra," is expected to launch without at least four features that will be present on the iPhone 18 Pro models, despite a price tag of at least $2,000.
The iPhone Air lacks Ultra Wide and Telephoto rear cameras, a SIM card slot, and stereo speakers. With a super thin design, a titanium frame, and a glass back, the iPhone Ultra is expected to ...
