Sounds like Cyrix/NSM wants to move away from the traditional PC markets where it is hard to compete with the likes of Intel/AMD, and focus on niches, such as set-top boxes, electronic appliances, etc. Could be "perceived" as good news for Intel/AMD... joey

Burt - Re: " Sounds like a rueful admission that the Cyrix purchase was probably wrong for NSM. Brian Halla sounds "sadder but wiser". Add POORER to your analysis and you'll have a "hat trick". Paul

Burt,re:Brian Halla sounds "sadder but wiser" Too many big mistakes like that could make Halla "sadder but unemployed". Cyrix has been a huge drain on National. I'm sure he is struggling to turn this sow's ear into a silk purse via targeting niches. Greg.
