This does not exactly inpsire confidence that whatever is going on in South Portland is going to help matters in the near term.

BTW, whatever happened to the plan to add the 6x86 core to the GX? Anyone know if this is still the plan and if so when? Is this what has delayed the 266 MHz GX??

Scrumbia,

Not sure what non-x86/x86 has to do with PCOAC. The Palmpilot and WinCE devices don't use x86 and they may actually grow up to eat into the "perceived" PCOAC market NSM is pursuing. These devices have battery lives measured in weeks.

These falling prices and Intels own efforts make NSM/Cyrix's PCOAC efforts a questionable road to riches.
