'Fastest 3D Processor' Continues to Dominate as Top OEMs and Trade Publications Make RIVA TNT 3D Processor of Choice SANTA CLARA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 16, 1999--NVIDIA(TM) Corporation (Nasdaq:NVDA - news) announced today that top OEMs Compaq, Dell, Gateway, Micron, NEC, CompUSA, ProGen and Quantex are shipping NVIDIA's award-winning RIVA TNT(TM) as the standard 3D graphics processor for all new Pentium III® systems. biz.yahoo.com Yep, that is right. The last bastion for graphics cards is being dominated by Nvidia. Once Integrated chipset/graphics chips hit the mainstream for Celron/Sub $500 PCs, from Intel, SIII/Via, SIS and Micron , ATI will be put out to pature if they don't have their version out soon. With the Sub $500 PCs, all that matters is cost. Very interesting. I think we can now understand Goldmans motivation the past couple of days in shorting the price down. 288k cross at $21.80. It's still a little hard to believe they would dump 300k to do a mere 300k cross. Because of this, I believe there may be more coming from them, otherwise I would have expected active accumulation to cover. It's worth following closely because once they're done, the price should rebound nicely.
