Motorola Looking to Sell PowerPC?

Silicon Strategies reports that Motorola's semiconductor unit is "still up for sale" but with no interested buyers.

In recent months, rumors were running rampant that STMicroelectronics Inc. would acquire Moto's chip unit. Both companies denied those rumors even though it was common knowledge that Moto's troubled semiconductor division was (and still is) on the block.

The Register adds its thoughts about the report... wondering what implications such a sale would have on contractual obligations with Apple.
