PowerPC but PPE's based on the Cell, Sony was "sloppy" with their terms, IBM took advantage.

So it is a power5 with some of the cells PPE's added to it. Interesting.

PPE are only slightly modified PowerPC cores.  The Cell is one PPE with 8 SPUs.

Oh, I miread that. I thought  you said PPEs pural, not possesive. Should have been Cell's PPE. Though that is still kind of strange to me. The cell was completed yet when the production model Xenon was originally released.
