Jim, a friend of mine who is from HP, told me that about a year ago. But could not or would not answer as to why HP would want S3. I am still at a loss for a reason, but it would seem the rumor still exist.

<Rumor has it that HP is looking at S3. Any speculation as to why HP would be interested in S3 ?> HP has a goal of becoming the world's largest PC maker by 2000. Their own graphics company could be a part of that strategy. They have recently been acquiring many smaller companies. BTW, HP could by S3 with pocket change. They have sales of approx. $57 billion.
