Roach. Good point. Unless a DELL, CPQ, GTW, etc... actually put these cards in their machines, your not going to see much volume. I mean how many AGP ready boxes go out the door w/o an AGP graphics board??? If you gonna spend the money for a PII w/AGP, your gonna get a $100 STB board or better with it. The videologic or hawk boards must get bundled w/machine or its not going to make any money. Sid

Hey there Stockeroach, hold on there. A design win for CRUS is a design win for S3. 50 units is better than zip. Calvin Scott

No congrats necessary Stockroach, just thought you would like the info since it has been rumored on this thread that S3 is about to buy CRUS graphics. It may turn out to be an additional 50 units your way. The way things are going S3 could use all the help they can get. I just hope they will have enough money to buy CRUS graphics division. Would bea big PLUS for CRUS. Can't say I know what it would do for S3. In any event keep up the faith. Good luck to all. Richard
