Motorola to boost PowerPC Motorola Inc. by next year will supercharge its PowerPC chips, the brains inside Apple computers, to better handle sound and images. The next-generation PowerPC will get its performance boost from a new technology called AltiVec, which allows Motorola's microprocessors to churn through data about 16 times faster in a single cycle, the company said. The initial crop of chips to use AltiVec also will be the first of Motorola's semiconductors manufactured using copper rather than aluminum. The switch to copper equips chip makers to include many more transistors in each chip design.
