Bill,
I agree with you that it is extremely unlikely that Intel would exit
the graphics market. Yes, they do have next generation chips on the
way. But as we have seen in the past and I believe will continue is
that Intel will not be very successful in this market. They are to slow
to meet design cycles. By the time i740 reach the market it was
basically obsolete. My concern with Intel is when Intel combines
the CPU and graphics functions on one chip. I believe that is a ways
off for a good performing product. (not the CPU & i740)
I disagree with you regarding PSR's. Look at were 3DFX, ATI
and even S3 were. Graphics is much more dynamic than DRAM.
Look at the retail market for graphics, there is marketing of the
different products. He who has the best technology at the key
price point wins. Today it is ATI in the OEM and 3DFX in retail,
tomorrow who knows. I am already seeing change in both area's.
SKI what is happening to you guys, its tough to stay king of the hill.
