Just 10 years after the first salvo was fired between Apple and IBM, the two joined with Motorola in 1991 to develop a standard for the PowerPC architecture that could go against the Microsoft-Intel Wintel alliance. The Apple-Intel-Motorola (AIM) team took IBM’s Power instruction set architecture and turned it into a consumer-friendly version that was manufactured by IBM and Motorola and used in Apple’s Macintosh line from 1994 to 2006

And how did that work out for them?

They both are experienced now, from partnerships, and are probably more “down to earth” now.

I think it will work, IBM is about the services and Apple is about the hardware ... a good match that way.

it didn’t. PowerPC was one of Apple’s biggest blunders and almost ruined them. Here’s to IBM to repeat the mid 90s for Apple. :::Cheers:::
