Motorala与IBM宣布,始于1992年的PowerPC芯片设计中心原由两家公司共同拥有,现在将由Motorola独家所有。两家公司也同时宣布,二者将继续在PowerPC芯片的设计工作中合作,而且将在向苹果公司提供芯片的业务中保持良好的竞争伙伴关系。苹果公司是目前唯一仍在桌面系统中大量使用PowerPC微处理器的公司。IBM原来在Somerset设计中心的工作人员将在Motorola的工厂中继续工作,芯片也将继续由两家公司分别制造。
Motorala and IBM announced that the PowerPC chip design center, which began in 1992, was jointly owned by the two companies and will now be exclusively owned by Motorola. The two companies also announced that they will continue to collaborate in the design of PowerPC chips and will maintain a good competitive partnership in providing chips to Apple. Apple is currently the only company that still uses PowerPC microprocessors in its desktop systems. IBM’s original staff at the Somerset Design Center will continue to work at the Motorola plant, and the chips will continue to be manufactured separately by the two companies.
