Liked the Sony PlayStation part: LSI does PlayStation... LSI does Sony DVD... Therefore .... Shane (hate Project X - more destruction of the DVD player market. Not worried for the next 12-18 months.)

O~~~o.. Earth to MR.. Interesting.. I wonder if LSI will have a hand in the suggestion that: " There has also been speculation that Sony will roll a DVD player into a "Playstation 2" console in 1999, he said. And 45 million PC DVDs, on top of the 4 millioin or so standalones...wouldn't you say that is getting to be a significant installed base?.. Heard any more about the prospects for DIVX? TSO

O~~~o Earth to Moonray... that post on LSI's licensing Bitstream's offering for set-top boxes looks like a winnner... we may yet get the volumes the Wiz has been predicting, if compatibility gets to looking this easy: With Bitstream's TrueDoc technology in the chip set, LSI customers will be able to handle all language capabilities for worldwide set-top box distribution. As part of the chip set, Bitstream font technology will provide all start-up menus and electronic programming guide text on screen. LSI customers will have full-licensing opportunities for the Bitstream technology. Thanks for the post! TSO
