IBM continued making PowerPC G3 derivatives for a while for Nintendo. Nintendo ended Wii U production in January 2017, which would I guess would mark the end of IBM's production of PowerPC as well. The Wii U for all its flaws is probably the most "practical" Power-based machine you can get nowadays, given relative power, availability, size and price. A 1.2GHz triple core PowerPC G3 would probably still eek out Raspberry Pi 3 like performance. Shame the Linux port to it never really got off the ground (also partially due to IBM's hackjob of an SMP implementation for the G3).
