In this article - Manufacturing At Root Of 'Microprocessor Flu'
Set-Top Boxes: Nat Semi's To Lose - May 17th, 1999 - was this:

When I interviewed Steve Tobak, vice-president of corporate marketing for National, he said the set-top box market was, from National's perspective, "ours to lose."

The field may be bigger than he thinks. Executives at Via Technologies, a maker of PC core logic chip sets, have already expressed interest in bolting on a microprocessor core to their core logic. And if I heard National chief Brian Halla correctly on a conference call,
Intel's "Timba" integrated chip will appear sometime next year.

Anyone know what Timba is? Paul?

I don't recall hearing that moniker before this.
