With IBM's huge investment in better support for little-endian PPC (in hardware, in software development toolchains, and in software itself) it seems likely that many PPC users are going to slowly move away from little-endian. I can imagine some embedded uses, e.g. in network hardware, may well stick with big-endian because it fundamentally makes sense there, but I imagine it's going to become increasingly obscure.
- gsnedders 10y agoMy above comment is of course wrong, they're going to move away from big-endian to little-endian. Pretty sure I changed what I was saying half-way through. :)
