Fuchi,

Well you just contradicted yourself in the SAME post!

I could not agree with you on "The performance doesn't sell the chip". As the matter of fact, people does pay premium for better-performance chips for whatever the reasons in great enthusiasm.

and then:

What really kill the sales of 6x86 and M2 is the stupid "PR Rating".

This is a performance rating. Who is to say that Jalapeno won't run at oh I don't know, let's pick a round number say 10Ghz and perform like a 1Ghz PII.. NO ONE!.. and the 10Ghz will sell.. now granted it would have to be run in liquid nitrogen at that speed on anything over say .05 micron, buy hey, this is all just fun right!!!

Steve

Fuchi - Re: "We, as the shareholders of CYRX/NSM, has been hurt most seriously from this "deceiving" marketing trick. :(("'

Are you telling us all that you still hold your Cyrix/NSM shares?

You rode it all the way down from $49 to $10 - below the IPO price!

Way to hang in there, Fuchi!

I'm glad you don't think profits are important.
