TDFX's announcement has upset the status quo. Wouldn't you love to be a fly on the wall right now in Creative's and Diamond's boardrooms? Who do you think will buy N-Vidia out? Whoever does will certainly leave the other board makers in the dust. If N-Vidia is cash poor than that means less money for R&D and well you get the picture. I'm sure a buyout wouldn't be that repugnant to them.

Now what I'm interested in knowing is if TDFX wanted to align itself with a board maker why not just let Creative buy them out? Was this an issue of who internal politics and control? And what will Creative do now with all it's TDFX shares? Did they sanction this merger? Strange, since it seemed they wanted to buy out TDFX themselves, enough for TDFX to take them seriously and issue a poison pill. So now what, Creative dumps all its shares (wonder what will happen to TDFX's price then), or a possible future Creative-TDFX-STB alliance?
