I myself have never seen an AC PM motor, but nearly every DC motor I 
have seen was PM. Everything from tiny electronics motors to automotive fan
motors are PM.  And I sure hope you mean Permanent Magnet, because that's
what I mean, and I'd look pretty silly if you were talking about something
totally different :)
