# POWERPC Notebook Project
+Our dream is to release an Open Source Hardware motherboard for a notebook
+able to run GNU/Linux for the PowerPC architecture, a motherboard designed
+by a community of enthusiasts of alternative technologies for the benefit
+of the entire community.
+
+To achieve this goal we conceived a completely new motherboard that has
+at its core a relatively modern PowerPC 64bit CPU - the NXP T2080 Book3e
+e6500 - that would fit into the chassis of the Slimbook Eclipse notebook
+with a 15,6 inch display.
+
+Thanks to hundreds of donors that actively support our
+[Donation Campaign](https://www.powerpc-notebook.org/campaigns/donation-campaign-for-pcb-design-of-the-powerpc-notebook-motherboard/)
+we were able to subcontract and collaborate with the hardware design firm
+ACube System, an Italian company that has a long tradition in producing
+desktop PowerPC motherboards.
+
+Being a
+[not-for-profit association](https://www.powerprogress.org/en/),
+we rely on the hard work of many
+volunteers that help us on various aspects. Fixing or fine tuning
+Debian packages for the PowerPC 64 bit architecture, supporting the
+communication on multiple social medias, helping with translations and
+revising the electronic design are just some of the activities we are
+currently carrying out to revive the PowerPC platform.
