Everyone needs to relax, it's going to be just fine. IBM apparently broke promises to Apple with their PowerPC line and the roadmap is actually looking pretty bleek. The "Cell" processors in the new gaming consoles are somewhat scaled down versions of the PPC 970.
Apple didn't have a choice at this point, and I'm happy that they decided to go this way given all that's happened. AMD would've been a better choice in my opinion, but I guess now they have all the options in the world.
Maybe there will be a RISC-based processor in Apple's future someday that they will actually benefit from. At this point, though, it's not going to come from IBM. At least not in the near future.
