Just a tad less than EXXON at slightly over $100 billion. Impressive.
That is 1/30 of the gross national product (ALL the goods and services sold in the United States for 1 year.) Now lets compare that to the 300 million market value of Cyrix. Equivalent chips, no fab, some trouble getting their chips on the market, but recent trends seem to indicate an acceleration in those sales (IBM reported to be out of inventory). Cyrix has an M-2 MMX (Pentium/Pentium-Pro) competitor coming out soon. Currently Cyrix chips sell for about $300-$400 LESS per chip for the P-200 chip, has equivalent (or better) technology (686 has register renaming, speculative execution, etc), is a Klamath / P55C competitor that is plug in replaceable on current motherboards supporting the 686, for 1/300 the market capitalization. Which do you think has a bigger upside?
