Why are you spending any time debating DAN3. He thinks that MSFT was driving force behind OS/2. Many of his premises are flawed. He not short or long just wrong.

Do you think VIA wants to build a Celeron killer. FROM THE REGISTER

Via to push Gobi chip in Q4

Taiwanese wires are reporting that Via, which bought IDT's WinChip and Cyrix earlier this year, will release the latter's Gobi processor in Q4.

According to the reports, the Socket 370 part will be aimed at the low end of the market.

Samples have already been sent to a number of Taiwanese motherboard companies for evaluation and volume production will start in six weeks.

Just last week, NatSemi fired 180 Cyrix staff, prompted by Via amidst fears that the entire future of the Gobi and Mojave projects were in jeopardy.

Our understanding remains that the M3 has been consigned to oblivion. ©

Nobody is going to buy those automobiles. We've got damn good horses everywhere. Why the hell do we need an automobile. My horse will get me around just fine, thank you.

Now if this struck anyone as obtuse, or perhaps even a little short-sighted, it's because you realize as I do that everyone wants the next best thing. It just takes some time for some of us to realize it.
