RE:"IDT muscles in on Cyrix's market" Pravin, This will be an interesting Winchip 2 vs MediaGX test case. Winchip offers better integer and floating point performance than MediaGX, but the clock speed is lower on Winchip. MediaGX offers lower costs because of the built in graphics, audio and chipset. There are some very real tradeoffs being made here. Will IDT undercut MediaGX pricing to get a foothold? If so, Cyrix may be in for a rough ride until a higher performance version of MediaGX is available. Scumbria
