S3's ViRGE vs. other 3D graphic products.
Steve,
I have not followed this S3 stock before, but I do like this company. Before I jump into buying this stock, I would appreciate if you can give me the answers for these following questions: 1) What is the company market share standing ? 2) Is Evans & Sutherland (NASD ESCC) a major rival of S3 ? According to the Business Wire, June 10, 1997, the REALimage technology of Evans & Sutherland leads the way in high-performance 3D NT Workstation graphics. Many top NT workstation vendors, including Compaq Computer Corp., Digital Equipment Corp., Hewlett-Packard Co., and Siemens Nixdorf Information Systems, along with graphics subsystem vendors, such as AccelGraphics Inc. and Diamond Multimedia Systems Inc., have already selected E&S REALimage technology for their top-of-the-line NT graphics systems. 3) How do you compare the 3DPro/2mp chipset of Mitsubishi Electronics America with the ViRGE and Trio of S3 ? 4) What is the market share between these three company ?
I would like to say thank you for your shared ideas in doing this research.
Thanks. |
