Motorola To Cut 9,400 MORE Jobs
8,100 in SPS (Semiconductor Product Sector).
I am not sure how many there are (were) in that sector, but this can't bode well for PowerPC production. Where do you think this leaves us for MWSF and beyond?
I hear that it is to be mostly Managers and Manufacturing...
Can't believe they can cut any more. I'm glad that I don't work there any more.

If someone buys them out, is Apple in trouble? Will there be delays? Will we be stuck on 1.0ghz G4s for 3 years?
"The Register" reports they have already cut deals with TSMC and and another place to produce for them.
You know, given how crappy their Quality Control is according to Eskimo, this may lead to higher yields on their top CPUs.
