I heard that NSM is killing off Cyrix, so I stopped by to say goodbye to all of the old time Cyrix investors. Steve, I do disagree with your premise that Cyrix shareholders got screwed on the acquisition, though. There is no doubt that NSM shareholders got screwed on the acquisition of Cyrix, but it is open to debate whether it was due to inept management of the Cyrix division, or due to the inevitable end being reached. NSM is not the first to give up x86 development, just the latest addition to a group that includes big names such as IBM and TI, and non-names like IMES. Credit goes to Jerry Rogers and his team of engineers who led upstart Cyrix to a very long life in a very tough business for a very long time. Only NexGen proved to be a better Intel competitor, and in the end breathed life into the AMD microprocessor division. Good luck to everyone, Carl
