signed a letter of intent
with VIA technologies
to sell its Cyrix PC

to the chipset supplier.

In a research note, Merrill Lynch analyst Joe Osha said he estimates the

agreement doesn't have any direct effect on Intel (INTC: news, msgs), but
does create a new competitor for Advanced Micro Devices (AMD:
