Not a rumor but a miracle - the PowerPC has risen from the dead Can you imagine after the SF Chronicle and NY Times report that AAPL killed the PowerPC both Motorola and IBM "resurrect" it : infoworld.com Can't wait to read the report that Iacocca is helping OJ find the new CEO and Jobs is flying around in the rain trying to locate the killers .

Lee Iacocca becoming CEO of Apple? A man of his reputation would certainly be qualified to run our beloved company. But before we all get too excited...Lee Iacocca is 73. I don't mean to be rude but the question is not "What kind of operational lifetime do you believe that the Mac OS has left in it?". I think it's the "operational lifetime" of Iacocca that we are concerned of. I would be very surprised if Lee Iacocca is named CEO. Anyone knows what Iacocca is doing these days other than his involvement in electric vehicles? Eric

Iacocca Update. >Rumors has learned that Apple's Board of Directors -- including a shorts-and-sports-shirt-wearing Larry Ellison -- has met at Apple's One Infinite Loop campus (the Deanza building, specifically). Jobs and Iacocca -- along with Jerry York (Iacocca's right-hand-man from his Chrysler days) -- were spotted speaking in Jobs' office< 207.25.223.214 Hmm. Jerry York and Iacocca collaborated with Kirk Kerkorian on the very seroius takeout attempt of Chrysler. Together with Ellison, they could easily take AAPL over. For that matter, they could take AAPL private and tell the WSJ, Business Week, et al to go screw themselves. Although, given the Iacocca's unfamiliarity (based on his purported questions) with AAPL and its product line, this kind of speculation would seem very premature. soup
