Kash - Re: "However perhaps with a better process and alternate fab (such as IBM) they may compete in higher end."

You have a SHORT memory.

IBM was Cyrix's MAIN FOUNDRY supplier from 1994 to 1998.

NSM brought the CYRIX fab processing In-HOUSE in 1998 to achieve better performance than what IBM was giving them.

That caused NSM/Cyrix's speed to go from slow to VERY SLOW.
