This brings back (mostly) fond memories of writing PowerPC assembler many years ago. One thing that seems odd to me is that the author credits Motorola with naming of the eieio instruction. I would have thought that instruction would have been in the original Power instruction set and thus it would have been IBM that named it. Anyone know?

He probably just thinks Moto invented PowerPC.
