The death knell may have started when Apple moved their systems to
Intel processors.  It's a community based OS (not Fedora specifically,
but the Linux/GNU community at large). If there are no cheap systems
to develop code it's hard to get the critical mass to push a distro.

RHEL5.5 is available for IBM Power though. I will be installing it on
a p550 sometime soon.
