Actually I think there are people who help with PowerPC.  I think it is
more accurate that you wouldn't get much help with PowerMacs anymore,
since they are just so obsolete.  IBM pseries and freescale boards on
the other hand are quite actively in use.

Powerpc in general works fine.  Graphical desktops on them on the other
hand is rarely used by anyone at this point it seems.
