PowerPC didn't really lose though, did it? I mean, it did in the desktop sector, but
it's still quite ubiquitous in embedded-land.

PowerPC versus x86 ... just because we lost doesn't mean we don't keep
having that fight. ;-)

If this was a
religious war per say in the realm of:
Apple II vs Commodore
Atari vs Amiga
CP/M vs DOS
I would be somewhat amused.
But these constant Unix vs. X or Windows vs. X or Mac vs. X are quite
annoying and if you go through the threads, you will see the same people
over and over and over again.
How about:
QBus vs Unibus
VT100 vs 3270
OS/370 vs VAX/VMS
SPARC vs MIPS (vs Alpha)
